Abstract The extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light beam carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) can be produced via high-order harmonic generation (HHG) due to the interaction of an intense vortex infrared laser and a gas medium. Here we show that the OAM spectrum of vortex HHG can be readily tailored by varying the radial node (from 0 to 2) in the driving laser consisting of two mixed Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beams. We find that due to the change in spatial profile of HHG, the distribution range of the OAM spectrum can be broadened and its shape can be modified by increasing the radial node. We also show that the OAM mode range becomes much wider and its distribution shape becomes more symmetric when the harmonic order is increased from the plateau to the cutoff when the driving laser has the nonzero radial nodes. Through the map of coherence length and the evolution of harmonic field in the medium, we reveal that the favorable off-axis phase-matching conditions are greatly modified due to the change of intensity and phase distributions of driving laser with the radial node. We anticipate this work to stimulate some interests in generating the XUV vortex beam with tunable OAM spectrum through the gaseous HHG process achieved by manipulating the mode properties of the driving laser beam.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
