Abstract

We demonstrate a device capable of controlling simultaneously all the degrees of freedom of a light beam (spatial/polarisation and spectral/temporal, 38,000 spatiotemporal modes are fully controlled through the C-band), after propagation through a multimode optical fiber that adds extra mode coupling. For this, we have combined a polarisation-resolved multi-port spectral pulse shaper (control of 1D spatial/polarisation and spectral modes) and a multi plane light conversion device (conversion 1D to 2D spatial/polarisation modes). The ability to deliver accurate volumetric light fields could be applied to control both linear and non-linear optical processes.
