The orbital angular momentum (OAM) holography has been identified as a vital approach for achieving ultrahigh-capacity multiplexation without a theoretical helical phase index limit. However, the encoding and decoding of an OAM hologram require a complete helical phase mode, which does not take full utilization of the angular space. In this paper, the partial OAM holography is proposed by dividing an OAM mode into several partial orbital angular momentums and encode each partial mode with a different target image. An image can only be reconstructed using an appropriate partial OAM mode within a specific illuminating angular range, henceforth holographic multiplexation of images can be realized. This method can significantly increase the holographic information capacity and find widespread applications.
