Double-slit interference with Laguerre–Gaussian beams

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The interference of Laguerre–Gaussian beams carrying orbital angular momentum was demonstrated in Young’s double-slit geometry. Double-slit interference is shown to be affected by the azimuthal phase dependence of a Laguerre–Gaussian beam. This interference provides new insight into the helical phase structure of the Laguerre–Gaussian beam and has potential applications for measuring the orbital angular momentum of an arbitrary wavefront.
