Abstract:

A feasibility of generating laser beams with screw (or vortex) dislocations of the wave front with the aid of controllable phase optical elements having a continuous surface profile: bimorph adaptive mirror and electrically controllable liquid-crystal modulator, has been studied experimentally.
