Abstract
We apply the generalized Huygens-Fresnel diffraction integral to investigate propagation of Circular Lorentz-Gaussian beams (referred as CLGBs) through an ABCD optical system and a Spiral Phase Plate (SPP). The conversion of these beams by the considered optical elements permit us the generation of the Superposition of Humbert-Gaussian beams (SHGBs). This beams family created by the SPP is doughnut with a dark spot at the centre. The generated waves can be applied in trapping neutral atoms, in atmospheric and oceanic turbulent studies and in other scientific fields.
