Metasurfaces Meet Multicore Fibers: A Platform for Generating Complex States of Light. — •Rahaf Ismail and Markus A. Schmidt — Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology, Jena, Germany

This research combines nano-printed metasurfaces with multicore fibers to generate orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams. Using 3D nano-printing, microprisms were fabricated and tested on planar substrates, SMF-28 single-core fibers, and multicore fibers. Experimental results showed precise deflection angles, with deviations within 1.5 degrees. Current work focuses on validating uniform deflection from multicore fibers, paving the way for efficient light manipulation and OAM beam generation.
