We present and test the integration of a static orbital angular momentum mode multiplexer with a dynamical geometric-phase optical element, enabling on-demand spin-controlled angular momentum multiplexing. A diffractive optic multiplexer fabricated by 3D high-resolution electron beam lithography performs a conformal mapping for the conversion from linear to azimuthal phase gradients. The latter is functionalized by a dynamic spin-orbit add-on that consists of a self-engineered electrically activated liquid crystal optical vortex generator having large clear-aperture and high-resolution. By combining several functionalities based on the optical angular momentum of light in a compact manner, the proposed hybrid device could find applications in next-generation high-dimensional mode switchers and routers based on orbital angular momentum.Read less <
