摘要：

We study the use of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) femtosecond laser filament with multi GW peak power to guide electric sparks in the atmosphere. We demonstrate that an LG beam with a vortex phase or with 6 azimuthal phase steps generates a filamentation regime, where a longer and more uniform energy deposition is produced compared to a normal beam with a flat phase. Such filaments can guide electric discharges over much longer distances. This technique could significantly extend the guiding range of laser filaments for lightning control and other long-range atmospheric experiments involving filamentation.
