Abstract

Based on the beating of two Laguerre–Gaussian laser beams in a rippled plasma medium, the effective factors such as plasma density, Gouy phase and orbital angular momentums of input lasers on the output twisted terahertz radiation are investigated. As a result, the amplitude of the generated vortex terahertz radiation is an increasing function of plasma density. The vortex terahertz intensity is strongly dependent on the orbital angular momentum of the input lasers. The terahertz output amplitude increases by decreasing the orbital angular momentum of the Laguerre–Gaussian input lasers. Here, by employing a suitably ripple wavenumber, the destroyer effect of the relative Gouy phase of the input lasers is removed, and perfect phase matching is satisfied.
