Title

Self-Protecting Optical Limiters Using Cascading Geometries

Abstract

An increase in the dynamic range of an optical limiting device is achieved by using two different nonlinear elements cascaded within a single limiting device. A comparison between the results of optical limiting experiments for a single nonlinear element limiter and a two element limiter shows a significant increase in the damage threshold of the latter with only a small increase of the limiting threshold.
