Spin-orbit coupled, non-integer OAM fibers: Unlocking a new eigenbasis for transmitting 24 uncoupled modes

We excite and stably propagate a record 24 modes with non-integer mean OAM in a 10-meter thin-ring air core fiber. Average mode purity is ~20dB for both nearest-neighbors and modes of the same angular momentum.
