Orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light provides an additional degree of freedom for multiplexing the data streams in optical communications, increasing further the channel capacity [1]. Applications of OAM for both classical data transmission [2] and quantum information [3] have been demonstrated. The key step towards robust, suitable for massive production, and cost-efficient OAM-assisted communications is the development of compact, on-chip integrable optical components.
