Off-Axis Vortex Beam Propagation through Classical Optical System in Terms of Kummer Confluent Hypergeometric Function

The analytical solution for the propagation of the laser beam with optical vortex through the system of lenses is presented. The optical vortex is introduced into the laser beam (described as Gaussian beam) by spiral phase plate. The solution is general as it holds for the optical vortex of any inte...
