Orbital angular momentum tuning using a phase only parallel aligned LCoS display

Optics 2020-04-22 v1

Abstract

We propose two schemes for achieving continuous and complete orbital angular momentum tuning using a simple device based on a phase only parallel aligned liquid crystal on silicon display, where the tuning is managed by changing the input beam state of polarization. We use an optical tweezers toolbox to simulate the optical force field of the tuned beams applied to dielectric spherical particles in order to prove the applicability of the method.
