Abstract

Two methods of beam coupling using stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) have been investigated. The first is SBS in overlapping interaction regions. In this case, the phases of the reflected Stokes output beams are locked together, and the relative piston error is conjugated. The second is SBS with a backinjected Stokes seed. In this case, the phases of two beams can be locked to the phase of the Stokes seed. Calculations for both types of beam coupling were performed with a version of the BOUNCE code1 modified at TRW to model SBS in liquids, beam combination, and backinjection.
