40. Generally, a q -plate with q = 1 is easy to manufacture and widely used in the former articles. Here we can also use q = 1, which can realize a QRW on an even m OAM space.

44. E-mail communication with L. Marrucci who invented the q -plate. He said, "The transmittance of the q -plate can be easily higher than 85 % without special tricks. With suitable antireflection coatings, it should be higher than 97 %. "
