Book Phase Conjugate Fidelity of Focused Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

Download or read book Phase Conjugate Fidelity of Focused Stimulated Brillouin Scattering written by Lee Paul Schelonka and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first measurements of the effect of the focal intensity on the fidelity of phase conjugation in focused stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) are reported. Regardless of the strength of aberration, laser beams with focal intensities above 5 times the SBS threshold were conjugated accurately. As the focal intensity declined below this value, the phase conjugate fidelity declined. The maximum correctable aberration strength was that which reduced the focal intensity to near the SBS threshold. Higher laser powers corrected stronger aberrations. The pump laser was a single axial mode, tripled, Q-switched Neodymium:YAG, with a 6 nm pulse-width, operating at 355 nm. A computerized far-field image analysis system directly measured the focal intensity reduction due to aberrations. The focal intensity of the brightest far-field spot controlled both the reflectivity and the fidelity. A pair of laminar airflow, hot-wire array aberrators provided continuously variable, nearly sinusoidal phase modulation in the transverse axes. Lateral shearing interferometry and energy in the bucket measurements gave the Strehl ratio of the backscattered (reconstructed) beam, and hence the phase conjugate fidelity. A phenomenoligical theory for the phase conjugate fidelity of focused SBS was developed using resonator boundary conditions and a Gauss-Hermite mode decomposition. Analytical solutions for the case of no pump depletion were in qualitative agreement with the data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is the most important example of a stimulated scattering process-light scattering that occurs when the intensity of the light field itself affects the propagating medium. A phenomenon that has been known of for some 35 years in solid state laser research, it has recently become relevant in the optical fiber ind

Book Experimental Study of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Open Cells and Multimode Optical Fibres

Download or read book Experimental Study of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Open Cells and Multimode Optical Fibres written by Allan Chi-Lun Wong and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study of the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) was carried out by performing optical phase conjugation in open cells and multimode optical fibres using a Q-switched, pulsed Nd:YAG laser. Experiments were done with test tubes that contained two SBS liquids - Fluorinert and Acetone, and multimode optical fibres. The three fundamental parameters of SBS: the threshhold energy, reflectivity and phase conjugate fidelity were characterised and analysed. In addition, the temporal behaviour of Stokes beam, phase correction, optical beakdown, and pulse compression were investigated. --p. vii.

Book Adaptive Optics for Industry and Medicine

Download or read book Adaptive Optics for Industry and Medicine written by Ulrich Wittrock and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-20 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 4th International Workshop on Adaptive Optics for Industry and Me- cine took place in Munster, ̈ Germany, from October 19 to October 24, 2003. The series of International Workshops on Adaptive Optics for Industry and Medicine beganwiththe?rstworkshopinShatura/Russiain1997,thesecond workshop took place in Durham/England in 1999, and the third workshop was held in Albuquerque/USA in 2001. The workshop series started out as a true grassroots movement and kept an informal spirit throughout all four workshops. Many personal friendships and scienti?c collaborations have been formed at these meetings. This fourth workshop was supposed to be held in Beijing, China. H- ever, the program committee decided in May 2003 to move the workshop to Munster ̈ due the general perception that the SARS (Severe Acute R- piratory Syndrome) cases reported in China could lead to a large epidemic. Despite this rather short notice the workshop in Munster ̈ was attended by about 70 people. Incidentally, the workshop coincided with the 50th anniv- sary of adaptive optics, because it was October 1953 when Horace Babcock published his famous paper “The possibilities of compensating astronomical seeing” in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Paci?c.

Download or read book Optical Phase Conjugation written by Robert A. Fisher and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book appears at a time of intense activity in optical phase conjugation. We chose not to await the maturation of the field, but instead to provide this material in time to be useful in its development. We have tried very hard to elucidate and interrelate the various nonlinear phenomena which can be used for optical phase conjugation.
