We are concluding our Summer Colloquium Series this coming Monday, with Jose Perez Romero giving his talk on “Improving beam quality in high power broad-area lasers”. There will be free pizza! Hope to see you there.
When: Monday, August 29, 12 pm
Where: Wilmot 116
Abstract: Filamentation hinders beam quality in high power broad-area diode lasers. This talk will review some of the nonlinear mechanisms that cause this filamentation, as well as techniques that can overcome the issue in order to improve beam quality.
