Dc. Jones et al., A STIMULATED BRILLOUIN-SCATTERING PHASE-CONJUGATE MIRROR HAVING A PEAK-POWER THRESHOLD LESS-THAN-100 W, Optics communications, 123(1-3), 1996, pp. 175-181
We have demonstrated stimulated Brillouin scattering phase conjugation
in a hollow glass lightguide filled with CS2. Threshold peak powers w
ere as low as 70 W, and the reflectivity and conjugation fidelity reac
hed 50% and 80%, respectively. The SBS threshold and reflectivity were
unchanged with average input powers up to 20 W.
