Abstract
Optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been recently implemented in holography technologies as an independent degree of freedom for boosting information capacity. However, the holography capacity and fidelity suffer from the limited space-bandwidth product (SBP) and the channel crosstalk, albeit the OAM mode set exploited as multiplexing channels is theoretically unbounded. Here, we propose the ultra-dense perfect OAM holography, in which the OAM modes are discriminated both radially and angularly. As such, the perfect OAM mode set constructs the two-dimensional spatial division multiplexed holography (conventional OAM holography is 1D). The extending degree of freedom enhances the holography capacity and fidelity. We have demonstrated an ultra-fine fractional OAM holography with the topological charge resolution of 0.01. A 20-digit OAM-encoded holography encryption has also been exhibited. It harnesses only five angular OAM topological charges ranging from -16 to +16. The SBP efficiency is about 20 times larger than the conventional phase-only OAM holography. This work paves the way to compact, high-security and high-capacity holography.
