In order to overcome the capacity limitations of current lightwave systems based on the
single-mode optical fiber, massively parallel transmission in the spatial domain [space …

Four-mode multiplexing and manipulation technologies are reviewed in the context of space-
division multiplexing (SDM) optical communication systems. These are multiplane light …

Multimode devices and components have attracted considerable attention in the last years,
