Abstract

A novel beam combination scheme was proposed to generate high order linearly polarized axially symmetric beam (LPASB) by superposing two Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams with opposite azimuthal quantum numbers. An amplitude computer-generated hologram (CGH) was not only used to generate two LG beams but also used in the combination scheme. Amplitude CGH was also used to detect the order of the LPASB.
