Abstract
The conservation orbital angular momentum and polarization for beams propagating through scattering bio-soft matter enables multiplexed signaling. By utilizing nonlinear optical effects in the scattering bio-soft-matter, we investigate the conservation of polarization and OAM through self-trapping and pump/probe coupled waveguides of light in sheep red blood cell suspensions at 532 nm and 780nm wavelengths. This study provides a basis for further exploration into optical signaling in soft matter systems.
