Highly dispersive Ge-doped coupled ring fiber for high-order OAM modes

Light-carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) has recently drawn extensive attention from researchers due to its unique field distribution. As a result of the intrinsic orthogonality among OAM modes with different topological charge values, they can be used as a modal basis in the mode-division multiplexing (MDM) optical communications systems. For fiber-based optical systems, chromatic dispersion induces temporal optical pulse broadening, which...
