Author:Mhlanga, T; Dudley, Angela L; McDonald, Andre M; Roux, FS; Lavery, M; Padgett, M; Forbes, ADate:Feb 2013A procedure to efficiently sort orbital angular momentum (OAM) states of light, by performing a Cartesian to log-polar coordinate transformation which translates helically phased beams into a transverse phase gradient, currently exists1. We ...Read more
Author:Dudley, Angela L; Mhlanga, T; McDonald, Andre M; Roux, FS; Lavery, M; Padgett, M; Forbes, ADate:Sep 2013In this work we will present two techniques for the measurement of superimposed higher-order Bessel beams. In the first technique we will outline a simple approach using only a spatial light modulator and a Fourier transforming lens to decompose ...Read more
