Laguerre-Gaussian modes become elegant after an azimuthal phase modulation
Vasilios Cocotos, Light Mkhumbuza, Kayn A. Forbes +3
Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes are solutions of the paraxial Helmholtz equation in cylindrical coordinates and are associated with light fields carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM…
