A New Type of Shape-Invariant Beams with Structured Coherence: Laguerre-Christoffel-Darboux Beams
A new class of sources presenting structured coherence properties is introduced and analyzed. They are obtained as the incoherent superposition of coherent Laguerre-Gaussian modes with suitable coefficients. This ensures that the shape of the intensity profile and the spatial coherence features of t...
