finesse.cymath.homs.HGModes

Overview

class finesse.cymath.homs.HGModes(q, modes, bool zero_tem00_gouy=False, bool reverse_gouy=False, bool flip_odd_x_modes=False)

Bases: object

A class that calculates a selection of Hermite-Gaussian modes.

Parameters:

q[complex | BeamParam]

Complex valued beam parameter. If one if given qx = qy. Otherwise an iterable of two must be given (qx, qy).

modestuple((n, m))

list of mode indices

zero_tem00_gouybool, optional

When True, the HG00 mode will have its gouy phase removed, and relatively removed from all other HG modes. ie. gouy = (n+m)*Gouy rather than (1+n+m)*Gouy

reverse_gouybool, optional

Gouy phase is removed from coupling coefficients when True

flip_odd_x_modesbool, optional

When True any output mode with an odd n index will have a negative sign applied. This should be used in reflection cases due to the coordinate system change.
