Highly efficient, high-quality phase-conjugate reflection at 308 nm using stimulated Brillouin scattering.
We report efficient, diffraction-limited phase conjugation of a XeCl laser beam (308 nm) using stimulated Brillouin scattering. Reflectivities approaching 100% are obtained by focusing a XeCl laser (<0.15-cm(-1) linewidth) at 300 GW/cm(2) into heptane or ethanol.
