<p>A colliding shock wave lens consists of a set of spark gaps capable of generating a number of shock waves in a gaseous medium which coalesce at the centre of the device, forming a region of transitory high density gas. This region of high density acts as a converging lens, momentarily capable of focusing a pulsed laser beam, timed to pass through the lens at the right instant. The lens may be used to modulate a laser beam or to Q-switch a laser.</p> |
