説明
<jats:p>Laguerre–Gaussian beams are structured light beams with a donut-shaped symmetric intensity profile and a helical phase profile. The beam profile is defined by a quantized parameter known as the mode number which extends to infinity. The availability of unbounded modes makes these beams a promising candidate for next-generation optical computing, and optical communication technologies. The symmetric intensity profile of a Laguerre–Gaussian beam can be made asymmetric through certain techniques and these beams are known by the term ‘asymmetric Laguerre–Gaussian beams’. Here, the asymmetricity adds another degree of freedom to the beam (apart from its mode number) which helps in encoding more information compared to a symmetric beam. However, in order to harness the benefits of all the available degrees of freedom, it is required to generate a large number of such beams in a multiplexed fashion. Here, we report the generation of such a large array of asymmetric Laguerre–Gaussian beams for the first time. Computer-generated holography and spatial multiplexing techniques were employed to generate a large array comprising of 12 × 16 = 192 asymmetric Laguerre–Gaussian beams with an arbitrary mode index and asymmetricity.</jats:p>
