TUNABLE ORBITAL ANGULAR MOMENTUM SYSTEM

Abstract: this system and method of for providing a tunable orbital angular momentum system for providing higher order bessel beams comprising: an acousto-optical deflector configured to receive an input beam, deflect a first portion of the input beam a first deflection angle relative to an axis of propagation and along an optical axis and deflect a second portion of the input beam a second deflection angle relative to the optical axis; a line generator disposed along the optical angle for receiving the first portion and the second portion of the input beam and provide an elliptical gaussian mean; a log-polar optics assembly disposed along the optical angle for receiving the elliptical gaussian beam and wrapping the elliptical gaussian beam with an asymmetric ring; and, a fourier lens configured to receive the wrapped elliptical gaussian beam.
