摘要
In this work, we present a theoretical model that describes induced temperature and refractive index profiles generated by the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) excitation beam. A comparison between LG and conventional fundamental mode TEM00 is drawn. It indicates that there is a decrease or increase around the optical axis (z, r = 0) in the refractive index by LG(1)(0) and LG(0)(5), thus enabling an enhancement of the refractive index gradient along the radius r. The temperature and refractive index profiles produced by the higher-order LC modes are compared with those of a conventional fundamental TEM00 Gaussian beam. The results indicate that there is an increase along the radius in the refractive index gradient generated by LG(1)(0) and LG(0)(5) which could enhance the sensitivity in photothermal lens detection.
