Recently, orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been adopted to measure the shape of static objects and the translation motion of moving objects in optical remote sensing. Most of these studies rely on measuring the intensity variation of OAM beams. However, the OAM intensity does not change with the rotation of the spinning object, but its phase changes. The phase variation is proved to be proportional to the object’s angular velocity. Since a rotating object will cause the OAM phase dependent on time, the OAM phase needs to be measured instantaneously, to support the OAM-based angular velocity measurement. In this work, we report a scheme to measure the angular velocity of a spinning object using a photonic OAM phase spectrum. A phase-to-intensity strategy is implemented to enable the real-time multi-OAM phase measurement, in which the phase can be determined with the intensities of four focal spots in a two-dimensional array generated by a phase-only spatial light modulator. The experimental results show that the average error of the measured angular velocity could be under 2.45% by detecting the phase of two OAM modes. This OAM-based angular velocity detection method provides a complementary approach to characterize the rotational Doppler effect, especially for slow angular motion. |
