    Abstract

    In this Letter, vortex phase and sinusoidal phase modulations of Hermite–Gaussian beams are studied theoretically and experimentally. The coding method of the experiment is introduced in detail, and the evolution law of focus under different beam order (m, n) and topological charge (l) is given. In order to verify the accuracy of the generation experiment, the optical field distribution under sinusoidal vortex modulation is analyzed deeply. The relevant analysis and methods provided in this Letter have certain practical significance for the development of laser mode analysis, optical communication, and other fields.
