The conductive channels are created by multi-photon and collisional ionization along the paths of two concentric laser beams directed to the target. A pulsed high-voltage field traversed by the beams causes a current to flow along the channels of free electrons within the beams. The concentric channels are created by interposing a ring-shaped reflecting shield across a single laser beam. The pulsed high-voltage field is applied to two concentric electrodes made of conductive glass placed in the path of the concentric beams. | |
