Dear linmanshuo,
I have never worked with the higher order Gauss beams in LightPipes (or outside), maybe Fred has some more insight. For the moment I can suggest to you to study the source code of the functions to be sure.
The GaussBeam(...,doughnut=True)
method will mix (i.e. add the complex fields) two Laguerre Gauss modes of order (n=0,m=1)
where one is rotated and phase shifted:
Fout = GaussLaguerre(Fin, w0, p=n, l=m, A = 1.0 ) #first copy
Fout = Interpol( Fout, Fout.siz, Fout.N, 0, 0, 360 / (4 * m), 1) #rotate by 90°/m, e.g. 90° for m=1
Fout = MultPhase(Fout, PI/2 ) #shift phase by pi/2=90°
Fout = BeamMix(GaussLaguerre(Fin, w0, p=n, l=m, A=1 ), Fout) #add complex fields to create spiral phase and doughnut intensity
The mathematical basis used for the GaussLaguerre
function is listed in the command reference in addition to the code.
https://opticspy.github.io/lightpipes/command-reference.html#LightPipes.GaussLaguerre
I must admit it looks like there is a discrepancy in the prefactors ($\rho$ instead of $\rho/2$) between the command reference and the actual code. This will lead to a wrong amplitude/intensity for a given $A$, but correct shape.
I worked with laguer modes in my master's research. I tried using your laguerre command but it has some problems with it.
First, which only has the real part of the" iltheta" phase term, it should have the others as well. According to the phase plots it is only correct for a certain region of the simulation. I looked at all the source code and this is partly due to the scipy functions you call to generate the laguerre-gauss functions
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_beam in Laguerre-Gaussian modes.
If you compare the phase of laguerre-gauss doughnut from the page https://opticspy.github.io/lightpipes/DoughnutModes.html with fig 1 of paper Physical meaning of the radial index of Laguerre-Gauss beams and fig 1 page 3 of Coupling of atmospheric perturbed optical beams with guided modes of propagation you will notice some difference .
I have some code that I used in my master's degree that I can try to implement in lights pipes. I used light pipes to do all my research simulations, but that part had problems. I have other suggestions for implementation for the generation of partially coherent beams (subject of my research).
thanks

Now you can choose your phase factor: exp, cosine or sine with ecs (default = 1: cosine). All these are eigenmodes. Please comment. Fred
I think it's a good way to solve it.
Could you provide the mathematical expression for the LG doughnut mode in LightPipes? Thanks in advance!
