Abstract
In the past decade, many studies on mode shaping have been motivated whenever the usual gaussian TEM modes were inefficient. For instance, a top hat intensity laser beam is often mandatory for applications like injection of high-energy laser chains, surgery, laser based biological experiments, or any application that requires a uniform intensity profile.
