Abstract
A transverse spatial mode transformer for transforming an optical signal between different spatial modes is described. The transformer is based on a spatially selective change of the phase of the optical signal wavefront relative to the initial wavefront. As the phase-adjusted optical signal propagates, the transverse intensity distribution changes to correspond to the new spatial mode. The transformer can be used to change the lower order spatial mode of an optical signal to a higher order spatial mode appropriate for a dispersion compensated fiber optic communication system. The transformer can also be used to change a higher order spatial mode to a lower order spatial mode.
