摘要
We demonstrate a broadband and stable linearly polarized mode converter by inscribing long-period grating (LPG) in few-mode polarization-maintaining fibers (FPMFs). The operating wavelength of the mode converter at 1.0- and 1.5- mu m waveband has been achieved by using PMF with different cut-off wavelengths. Theoretical and experimental demonstrated broadband linearly polarized mode conversion can be achieved with a maximum 10 dB bandwidth of 140- and 189- nm at 1.0- and 1.5- mu m waveband respectively due to the turning point coupling mechanism. Then, we propose and demonstrate a controllable linearly polarized orbital angular momentum (LPOAM) mode generator using a single LPG-based mode converter and a length of FPMF. The LP-OAM mode is produced by turning axial strain and can be smoothly switched between +/- 1 order. Our all-FPMF based grating fabrication offers a new option towards a stable and broadband polarized mode converter and LP-OAM mode generator for application in a few-mode fiber laser and communication system.
