Dear list,
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience using liquid light guides with
lasers? In particular, I'm interested in what the beam profile exiting the
fiber typically looks like (assuming a Gaussian/TEM_00 input), and whether
the emitted light is still spatially coherent. Any experience anyone could
share (including products with which you've had success) would be quite
helpful and much appreciated! I'd also be very interested if anyone can
suggest a good reference on optical properties of liquid light guides that
includes discussion of laser applications. So far, I have not been able to
find much, and unfortunately I have zero personal experience in this area.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer,
Matt
