Abstract
We report the experimental generation of a class of spin-orbit hybrid modes via an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer, whose intensity and polarization distributions may be tuned by manipulating the polarization state of the interferometer input beam. In the case of an equivalent biphoton input, we predict that this device will exhibit biphoton (Hong-Ou-Mandel) interference in conjunction with these mode transformations.
