Abstract

The composite coherence vortices by coherently and incoherently superimposing two parallel, off-axis partially coherent vortex beams and their evolution in free space are studied. It is shown that the superposition scheme, off-axis distance, coherence parameter and propagation distance affect the position and number of composite coherence vortices. The motion, creation and annihilation of composite coherence vortices appear by varying the off-axis distance, coherence parameter and propagation distance. The coherent and incoherent superpositions result in the different position and number of composite coherence vortices and their different evolution behavior in the coherent limit.
