Stability and optical quality of "windmill"-formed 8CB liquid crystal films for replenishable plasma mirrors
A. Vazquez, A. Jewell, M. Cole +16
Liquid crystal (LC) film plasma mirrors (PMs) based on 4-octyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) are an enabling technology for reflecting high-fluence laser pulses. These freestanding LC fil…
