Description
Features
- Non-toxic SBS active liquids available (fluorinert and other), subject to application and an input laser radiation parameters
- Random positioning and mounting to the laser breadboard by eccentric clamp
- Modules with build-in frontal holder for the focusing lens
- Custom cell length, mounting and its designs are welcome
SBS cell application
Spatial dependence: Phase-conjugate mirror; beam cleanup; beam combining

Time dependence: Pulse compression (shortening), reshaping; increasing self-phase modulation

Liquids for SBS cells
