Abstract
We report the generation of prescribed optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) spectrum with spiral complex field modulation. Both symmetric and asymmetric OAM spectrums are generated with a vector beam generator and measured with a hybrid conformal mapper. Three methods for OAM spectrum generation ranging from the pure spiral phase modulation, the spiral amplitude and phase modulation, to the spiral phase and polarization modulation are demonstrated. The OAM spectrum generation with spiral complex field modulation may find applications in optical trapping and high-speed data communication.
