Topological charge of optical vortices /

"This book is devoted to the consideration of unusual laser beams - vortex or singular beams. It contains many numerical examples, which clearly show how the phase of optical vortices changes during propagation in free space, and the topological charge is preserved. The book is written for opti...

Description
Summary:"This book is devoted to the consideration of unusual laser beams - vortex or singular beams. It contains many numerical examples, which clearly show how the phase of optical vortices changes during propagation in free space, and the topological charge is preserved. The book is written for opticians, graduate students interested in an interesting section of optics - singular optics. It will also be of interest to scientists and researchers who are interested in modern optics. In order to understand the content of the book, it is enough to know paraxial optics (Fourier optics) and be able to calculate integrals"--
