Abstract
We investigate the behavior of optical vortex propagation and orbital angular momentum (OAM) conservation in scattering media by observing phase characteristics and mode content of scattered vortex beams. Micro-sized polystyrene particles in varying concentrations and optical path lengths provide a comprehensive understanding of the light dependence on optical properties and thickness of the scattering media.
