Product of Two Laguerre–Gaussian Beams

We show that a product of two Laguerre–Gaussian (pLG) beams can be expressed as a finite superposition of conventional LG beams with particular coefficients. Based on such an approach, an explicit relationship is derived for the complex amplitude of pLG beams in the Fresnel diffraction zone. Two ide...
