Stability of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes in Conventional and Ring-Core Optical Fibers

Modal dynamics in multimode optical fibers are fundamentally governed by the inter- play between phase matching and intermodal coupling. In this work, we investigate the fundamental coupling mechanisms in ring-core fibers and identify a geometry-induced cou- pling suppression that significantly reduces coupling coefficients between orbital angular momentum modes compared to conventional multimode step-index fibers. This mechanism provides a clear physical explanation for the superior transmission stability of orbital angular momentum modes in ring-core fibers and establishes specific geometric constraints for the design of ring-core fiber-based mode converters.

High-purity amplification of circularly polarized orbital angular momentum modes in an active spun ring-core tapered fiber

Structured light, optical fields engineered in their spatial, polarization, or phase degrees of freedom, has become a key resource across advanced communication, sensing, imaging, and quantum technologies. Optical fibers nowadays play an essential role in this landscape, providing stable and scalable platforms for guiding, and amplifying complex modes such as vector and orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams. In this work, we demonstrate an active spun ring-shaped tapered fiber as a gain medium for efficient amplification of OAM modes preserving their modal purity and polarization topology. OAM beams with topological charges l = 1 and l = 2 carrying 60 ps pulses at 15 MHz repetition rate at 1030 nm wavelength are amplified over 1.2 W average power with modal purity over 95%. The spatially resolved measurement of the OAM beam polarization topology revealed small distortion due to the coupling in to neighbour modes. These results demonstrate the high potential of active spun ring-shaped tapered fibers for power scaling of complex beams, preserving their phase and polarization structure simultaneously.

Optical Vortex Dynamics in non-uniform twisted Ring-Core Fibers

In this work, we present a thorough analysis of the propagation of fiber modes carrying orbital angular momentum in twisted, tapered, ring-core optical fibers. In particular, by generalizing the usual coupled-mode approach to include the effect of twisting and tapering, we discuss how it is possible to achieve efficient power transfer between modes carrying different amounts of orbital angular momentum. Our simulation allows us to get a clear insight into the dynamics of vortex modes propagating through twisted ring core fibers.
