Spatial modes of light can potentially carry a vast amount information, making them promising candidates for both classical and quantum communication. However, the distribution such over large distances remains difficult. Intermodal coupling complicates their use with common fibers, whereas free-space transmission is thought to be strongly influenced by atmospheric turbulence.
