Abstract

When a two-color Laguerre-Gaussian laser beam propagates through an indium tin oxide (ITO) material, the spatial distributions of odd- and even-order vortex harmonics carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) are studied. The origin of vortex harmonics can be directly clarified by investigating their dependence on the incident laser field amplitude and frequency. In addition, it is shown that the spectral intensities of vortex harmonics are sensitive to the epsilon-near-zero nonlinear enhancing effects and the thickness of ITO materials. Thus the vortex harmonics can be conveniently tunable, which provides a wider potential application in optical communications based on high-order OAM coherent vortex beams.
