Shaping of independently controllable multiple vector curve beams

Abstract

We demonstrate a convenient approach for simultaneously controlling the amplitude, topological charge and position of different shaped curve beams in the xy-plane according to the prescribed application. By utilizing a non-iterative holographic algorithm, along with the optical 4f vector beam generation system, the vector beams are generated along arbitrary trajectories. By means of different shapes and topological charges, the multiplexing of these attractive beams will be helpful for developing information encoding protocols for free-space laser communication.
