We demonstrate, both theoretically and experimentally, the inversion of the topological charge of a vortex that propagates through an optical fiber. In our experiment, we couple the vortex to a two-mode fiber and we control the charge inversion by deformation of the optical fiber.
Key words: Optical vortices / charge inversion / fiber propagation
