摘要：
In this paper, the LP11 mode evolution in a few mode-polarization maintaining fiber is experimentally investigated. Selective conversion from the LP11a/LP11b mode to the LP11b/LP11a, OAM(+1), and OAM(-1) modes are demonstrated with varying wavelengths and fiber lengths. This property may have nice applications in spatial division multiplexing (SDM) systems, and one of them, i.e., the all-fiber compact and robust scalar orbital angular momentum (OAM) generator, which is cascaded by a mode-selective coupler and a few mode-polarization maintaining fiber, is also demonstrated with expected performance for conversion between LP01 mode and OAM(+1)/OAM(-1).
