Abstract
Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC) enables novel beam shaping devices, and in particular highly mode-selective spatial mode multiplexers. MPLC-based multiplexers can combine up to 10 spatial modes with cross-talk of â26Â dB and insertion loss below 4Â dB. These multiplexers are versatile and can be used in many applications, including long haul mode division multiplexing, short reach mode group division multiplexing, multi-mode optical amplification, and their mode conversion capabilities can be used for optimizing wavelength selective switches.
