Abstract
Optical vortices, which carry orbital angular momentum, form infinite-dimensional basis sets of orthogonal states, which make them attractive for mode-division multiplexing systems. We describe recent demonstrations of successfully generating & propagating vortices in optical fibers, and review recent transmission experiments conducted with them.
