Absorption of Light at Oblique Incidence on a Plasma Layer
Keyword(s):
Two effects are examined which may lead to enhanced absorption of light by sharply bounded plasma layers at oblique incidence. The first is a resonance absorption caused by interference of light reflected from the front and rear boundaries of the layer. The second is the linear coupling of the incident transverse wave into longitudinal plasma waves. It is thought that these effects may be useful in obtaining increased efficiency in laser heating of plasmas.
