Abstract
Laser beam traps based on the use of highly absorbing neutral density glass plates at Brewster incidence have been implemented. These simple and inexp ensive devices reach residual light levels on the order of 10(-9) with no p articular difficulty. Better rejection efficiencies require good quality po lishing of the absorbing glass plates. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physi cs. [S0034-6748(00)04012-0].
