description In this work, studies are carried out in the field of optical singular beams that have passed through gyrotropic crystals. We have experimentally shown that singular beams with a helical intensity distribution are formed when passing through a system of two gyrotropic crystals with opposite values of the gyration coefficient. It is shown that the system is capable of generating optical vortices with a double topological charge in one of the components of circular polarization when light propagates through two gyrotropic crystals.
