Abstract

We theoretically and numerically studied the off-axis Gaussian vortex beam (GVB) characteristics. The off-axis GVB scheme is utilized to generate tunable broad OAM modes using a single helical phase. The single helical phase can be easily created in the high peak power lasers using a spiral phase plate (SPP). The high peak power GVBs greatly enhances the efficiency of nonlinear wave-mixing to tune the wavelength as well as OAM modes of laser beams. Further, we propose type-II second harmonic generation (SHG) of off-axis GVB to tune the wavelength and to increase the number of OAM modes of vortex beam. Polarization-controlled broad OAM spectra is generated at SHG wavelength. This scheme is effective for control generation of a broad range of OAM spectra in the required wavelength for high-capacity and multi-channel optical communication.
