Focusing properties of an aberrated laser beam

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A computation procedure using self-similar propagation modes is used to analyze the effect that nonlinear whole beam phase distortions have on the focusing properties of the beam produced by a high power solid state fusion laser. A comparison between the predicted and measured patterns for a prototype fusion laser is given.
