Abstract
The analytical formulas for the spectrum of modified partially coherent flat-topped (MPCFT) beams propagating in a turbulent atmosphere have been derived under strong fluctuation condition of turbulence. The spectral properties of MPCFT beams propagating in a strong turbulence have been investigated, and the changes of on-axis and off-axis spectral distributions have been analyzed quantitatively. The results show that the on-axis relative spectral shift of the modified partially coherent flat-topped beam exhibits spectral switch for the beam order M > 1, and with the increasing propagation distance the blue-shift gradually decreases in atmospheric turbulence. A rapid transition for the off-axis spectrum appears at one critical position in turbulence, and the position decreases with the increasing beam order for the lower beam order and the nearer propagation distance. The spectral properties and the spectral shifts of MPCFT beams also depend on the inner scale, the spatial coherence parameter.
