Download or read book Optical Beam Phase-Conjugation and Electromagnetic Scattering Process with Intense Fields written by Robert W. Hellwarth and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project performed both theoretical and experimental studies of optical beam phase-conjugation and electromagnetic scattering processes with intense optical fields. New bounds are established on the power and energy required to perform useful wave mixing in certain classes of nonlinear media. New physical processes are discovered for optical beam phase conjugation. The first complete physical characterizations of monopolar and bipolar photorefractive crystals is performed. Keywords: Optical beam phase conjugation; Nonlinear optics; High power; Optical beam propagation; Photorefractive effect. (jhd).
