Laguerre-Gaussian laser #457

Dear developer! I was wondering if epoch has the function of setting Laguerre-Gaussian laser? Thanks! HLQ

Hey HLQ,

Unfortunately we don't have Laguerre-Gaussian presets, but you can build up any arbitrary laser profile using functions in the maths parser. You may find the interpolate function especially helpful in making complex custom profiles.

Hope this helps, Stuart
