We introduce a quantum like representation of a Spiral Phase Plate, acting on an electromagnetic field, as a two mode phase operator. The representation is based on the Newton binomial expansion and on properties of rational power of lowering and raising operators of quantum field. The correctness of this representation is proved by obtaining the same results of the Paul's operator in the single mode limit and comparing the results of two particular problems solved both in the classical and quantum picture: the action of a Spiral Phase Plate on a Gaussian Beam (corresponding to the vacuum state of the two-dimensional harmonic oscillator) and on a off-axis Gaussian Beam (corresponding to the displaced vacuum state in quantum picture).
