Abstract
We show the first white-light optical vortices generated from supercontinuum that have the azimuthally varying phase consistent with monochromatic Laguerre- Gaussian beams. We use a computer-generated hologram to convert Gaussian supercontinuum source into Laguerre-Gaussian supercontinuum.
