Abstract
It is pointed out theoretically that fiber acousto-optic mode coupling can occur between the higher-order modes with adjacent azimuthal numbers. Selective fiber mode conversion from to , and then to or is demonstrated experimentally in a few-mode fiber by using a method of cascaded acousto-optic mode coupling.
