Electro-optic phase modulator as a starting mechanism in Ti:sapphire.
Optics letters 20:14 (1995) 1553-1555
Abstract:
An electro-optic phase modulator in a regenerative mode-locker configuration is demonstrated as the starting mechanism for a Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. Mode locking is initiated automatically, and the system is capable of pulses as short as 21 fs.First-order parameters for a general two-beam interferometer.
Applied optics 34:19 (1995) 3571-3575
Abstract:
We formulate the first-order properties of a general two-beam interferometer. We show that it may be completely described by the light source position and the location, orientation, and size of the two images of this light source as seen from the observation plane, plus the image-plane position and the location, orientation, and size of the two images of this observation screen as seen from the light source position, plus the optical path difference between the two possible optical paths. The parameters are quite similar to those previously defined by Steel [W. H. Steel, Interferometry, 2nd ed. (Cambridge U. Press, New York, 1983)].Experimental determination of the quantum-mechanical state of a molecular vibrational mode using fluorescence tomography.
