Nonlinear forms of laser beam propagation in a photopolymerizable medium
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Detailed studies of the dynamics of a continuous wave, visible laser beam propagating in a photopolymerizable organosiloxane are presented. Experiments carried out at intensities ranging across ten orders of magnitude (3.2 x 10<sup>-5</sup> Wcm<sup>-2</sup> to 12732 Wcm<sup>-2</sup>) revealed three types of nonlinear behaviour. In the low-intensity regime, the beam self-trapped and exhibited complex oscillatory behaviour, which signified the excitation of high-order modes in its self-inscribed waveguide during self-trapping. This is consistent with previous theoretical predictions of self-trapping in 1-photon systems including photopolymers. In the mid-intensity regime, the beam underwent spatial self-phase modulation, which elicited spatial diffraction rings. While this phenomenon has been observed in Kerr, liquid crystals and absorptive materials, it has until now been neither theoretically nor experimentally observed in photopolymers. Rapid and large refractive index changes induced in the high-intensity regime caused filamentation of the beam. These studies provide a comprehensive overview of nonlinear light propagation in photopolymers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
