finesse.components.laser.Laser.tem

Laser.tem(n, m, factor, phase=0.0)[source]

Distributes power into the mode HGnm.

Note

This does not change the total power of the laser, rather, it re-distributes this power into / out of the specified mode.

Parameters

n, m : int

Mode indices.

factor : number

Relative power factor, modes with equal factor will have equivalent power distributed to them.

phase : number, optional; default = 0

Phase offset for the field, in degrees.
