Topological Charge of Multi-Color Optical Vortices

The topological charge of an optical vortex is a quantity rather stable against phase distortions, for example, turbulence. This makes the topological charge attractive for optical communications, but for many structured beams it is unknown. Here, we derive the topological charge (TC) of a coaxial s...
