Journal ArticleDOI
Coherent coupling of laser gain media using phase conjugation.
TL;DR: A laser energy-scaling technique, based on a phase-conjugate oscillator/amplifier scheme that permits the coupling of several parallel amplifiers to form a single coherent output beam, is experimentally demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulated Brillouin scattering phase-conjugation fidelity fluctuations
TL;DR: Shot-to-shot fluctuations in the far-field fidelity of stimulated Brillouin scattering phase-conjugate mirrors in the saturated reflectivity regime under various experimental conditions reflect a partial breakdown in the discrimination mechanism that selectively amplifies the conjugate mode above the stimulated BrillOUin scattering noise seed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy storage and heating measurements in flashlamp-pumped Cr:Nd:GSGG and Nd:YAG
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have experimentally measured the energy stored and the heat generated in flashlamp-pumped Cr:Nd:GSGG for three Cr/sup 3+/ concentrations in the range of 1-2*10/sup 20/ ions/cm/ sup 3/.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time atmospheric compensation by stimulated Brillouin-scattering phase conjugation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the first demonstration of atmospheric compensation at extended ranges by stimulated Brillouin-scattering phase conjugation at a 2.5m height above ground.

Speckle resistant method and apparatus with chirped laser beam
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-mode laser beam is used to reduce speckle effects by frequency chirping a single mode laser beam, reflecting it off a speckling surface, and then integrating the reflected beam over at least one chirp period.
