Operational Optimization of Photonicly Generated Running Periodic Microwave Structures

摘要

The operating characteristics of stationary and running plasma gratings are dominated by the longitudinal distribution of light and shade across the grating period. This feature is successfully utilized for the optimization of grating geometry to achieve maximum reflection coefficients from both grating types and minimum amplitude modulation from running plasma gratings. Optimization results are presented in terms of normalized quantities and, thus, can be used generally.
