Abstract
Disclosed is an all-fiber optical vortex laser based on resonance of orbital angular momentum modes. The all-fiber optical vortex laser has an annular cavity structure, and includes a narrow-linewidth pump laser, an optical amplifier, an orbital angular momentum mode generator, a first polarization controller, an optical fiber circulator, an optical fiber coupler, a second polarization controller and a vortex optical fiber. The orbital angular momentum mode generator () realizes directional conversion from a fundamental transverse mode in a single-mode optical fiber into an orbital angular momentum mode with a specific topological charge in a vortex optical fiber. The optical fiber coupler can realize directional coupling from an orbital angular momentum mode in one vortex optical fiber to an orbital angular momentum mode in another vortex optical fiber; the vortex optical fiber is an optical fiber supporting stable transmission of an orbital angular momentum mode.
