Abstract

In this paper, we have set up a diode laser pumped rubidium amplifier for higher-order Laguerre-Gauss (LG) modes. We experimentally realized amplification of higher-order LG modes including helical and sinusoidal LG03, LG13, LG23, and LG33 modes with their high purity held. This novel scheme of generating high-purity higher-order LG beams at high laser power is preferred to the second-generation gravitational wave interferometers. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time this scheme is formulated.
