Phase conjugation in a flame
John Pender,Lambertus Hesselink +1 more
TL;DR: The first observation to the authors' knowledge of degenerate four-wave mixing in a sodium-seeded flame is reported and the theoretical dependence of the phase-conjugate output on the sodium concentration is verified experimentally, demonstrating the potential of this procedure as a diagnostic tool to measure species concentration in combusting or noncombusting media.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degenerate conical emissions in atomic-sodium vapor
John Pender,Lambertus Hesselink +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the degenerate conical emissions that appear in laser-pumped atomic sodium have been reported for both single-and double-pump geometries, and the analysis for the singlepump phenomenon is formally related to amplified spontaneous emission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conical emissions and phase conjugation in atomic sodium vapor
John Pender,Lambertus Hesselink +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of conical emission in atomic sodium was observed, and phase conjugation experiments were conducted to explain the changes in reflectivity as a function of probe angle, which are not explained by existing theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium phase-conjugate oscillator in a combusting environment.
John Pender,Lambertus Hesselink +1 more
TL;DR: Oscillation that is due to the action of a single flame and two pump beams is observed, which is unique in that a number density of 10(16) cm(-3) is maintained despite a lateral dimension of 1 mm.
