Efficient formation of pure helical laser beams

Abstract A novel method for forming pure helical laser beams of pre-determined helicity is presented. It is mainly based on replacing one of the laser mirrors with a spiral phase element. The basic principles along with experimental results using a CO 2 laser are described.
