Abstract
- Wave-front matching of the local oscillator beam and the signal beam is of vital importance in optical heterodyne efficiency. A method for aligning the local oscillator beam and the signal beam is described. Mixing efficiency is improved. One can directly observe the matching procedure on an oscilloscope.
