  • Title: Focal-plane imaging of crossed beams in nonlinear optics experiments.
    Author: Bivolaru D, Herring GC.
    Journal: Rev Sci Instrum; 2007 May; 78(5):056102. PubMed ID: 17552864.
    Abstract:
    An application of focal-plane imaging that can be used as a real time diagnostic of beam crossing in various optical techniques is reported. We discuss two specific versions and demonstrate the capability of maximizing system performance with an example in a combined dual-pump coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering-interferometric Rayleigh scattering experiment (CARS-IRS). We find that this imaging diagnostic significantly reduces beam alignment time and loss of CARS-IRS signals due to inadvertent misalignments.
