✦ Synopsis
The analytical expression for nonparaxial electric field amplitude of the TEM 0l ⁎ doughnut beam with the orbital angular momentum quantum number l is derived in the far field by means of the angular spectrum representation and the stationary phase method. It is shown that the divergent angle of the far field of TEM 0l ⁎ doughnut beam will be smaller with the decreasing of the orbital angular momentum quantum number l or the increasing of the beam waist width w of the initial beam. And the maximal radial intensity of the beam is decreased with its propagation at different rates for different l and w.
