Paper Abstract
Measuring the speed and direction of vortices is of great importance in fluid dynamics. We report on the use of a CW
laser beam with a superposition of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes generated by a phase mask imprinted on a two-dimensional
spatial light modulator. The shaped beam is then guided and scattered of a sample which is rotated; the
rotational frequency is extracted from spectral analysis of the scattered light. This method allows for virtually real-time
determination of vorticity characterization in a fluid.
