Journal ArticleDOI
Generating radially polarized beams interferometrically.
TL;DR: Two interferometric techniques for converting a linearly polarized laser beam into a radially polarized beam with uniform azimuthal intensity are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transporting and focusing radially polarized laser beams
TL;DR: In this article, a radially polarized laser beam is used for applications such as laser particle acceleration, and the issues of transporting and focusing (with an axicon) the beam that was generated in the laboratory are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron density measurements of electron beam pumped XeCl laser mixtures
TL;DR: In this paper, a CO2 quadrature interferometer was used to measure the electron density as a function of the halogen (HCl) and xenon concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron density measurements of electron‐beam‐pumped XeF and KrF laser mixtures
TL;DR: A CO2 quadrature interferometer is used to measure the temporal evolution of the electron density in XeF and KrF electron-beam-pumped laser mixtures (nonlasing).
Journal ArticleDOI
Absorptance measurements of metal mirrors at glancing incidence.
Wayne D. Kimura,Dennis H. Ford +1 more
TL;DR: It is found that the Fresnel theory for bare metal surfaces does not always reliably predict the measured absorptance at high angles of incidence.
