发射光谱法对早期激光诱导铝合金等离子体诊断研究

对激光诱导等离子体参数进行诊断有多种方法,其中采用发射光谱法对其诊断是一种重要的方法。文中采用Nd∶YAG固态激光器,输出波长1 064nm红外激光与铝合金样品相互作用,深入研究了铝合金等离子体产生早期(1μs)谱线轮廓、谱线强度、线背比、谱线半峰宽及位移等随时间演变规律。研究表明,激光与物质相互作用早期,电子数密度非常大,电子与离子及原子之间的相互作用非常强烈,谱线的Stark展宽效应非常明显,导致多重谱线重叠在一起,随时间演变,电子数密度及电子温度的降低,多重谱线的半峰宽越来越窄且谱线轮廓对称性越来越好。MgⅠ285.212 6nm谱线强度早期逐渐增强,大约100ns左右谱线强度达到最大值,然后谱线强度呈逐渐减小的趋势,这是由于等离子体产生早期,电子及离子占主导地位,故早期原子谱线强度较弱,随时间演变,电子与离子之间的复合,原子数密度逐渐增加,故原子谱线逐渐增强,达到最大值之后,由于等离子体激发温度的降低,故谱线强度逐渐减弱。以NIST波长位置为参考,等离子体产生的早期谱线发生了红移,连续背景强度随时间演变呈幂函数形式急剧递减,与之相反,谱线的连续背景强度与谱线强度相比,连续背景衰减的速度更为迅速,故导致谱线信背比随时间演变呈增大趋势,本研究对等离子体早期这些现象从理论角度进行了深入探讨。

Spectra of heliumlike carbon,aluminium and argon under strongly coupled plasma

Spectral line positions for the highly stripped helium like carbon, aluminium and argon embedded in intense plasma environments have been calculated theoretically to compare with the existing data available from laser plasma experiments. The changes in the ionization potentials for such ions have been determined and the excitation energies, oscillator strengths and transition probabilities for the transitions 1s^{2 1}S → 1snp ¹P (n=2-5) have been evaluated for the diagnostic determination of such plasmas. The ion sphere (IS) model was used for estimating the effect of strongly coupled plasma on the ions within the non-relativistic as well as the relativistic framework. Time dependent perturbation theory has been applied for obtaining the linear response properties of the ions in the non-relativistic approximation. The effects of the plasma environment on such properties of the ions under the Debye screening model with suitable cut off radii have also been considered for comparing the data with those obtained from the IS model of the plasma.     

Saturated high-repetition-rate 18.9-nm tabletop laser in nickellike molybdenum

We report saturated operation of an 18.9-nm laser at 5-Hz repetition rate. An amplification with a gain-length product GL of 15.5 is obtained in the 4d 1S0-4p 1P1 laser line of Ni-like Mo in plasmas heated at grazing incidence with approximately 1-J pulses of 8.1-ps duration from a tabletop laser system. Lasing is obtained over a broad range of time delays and pumping conditions. We also measure a GL of 13.5 in the 22.6-nm transition of the same ion. The results are of interest for numerous applications requiring high-repetition-rate lasers at wavelengths below 20 nm.

Temporally Resolved Spectroscopy of Laser-Induced Carbon Ablation Plasmas

Temporally resolved emission spectra (360-630 nm) of carbon ablation plasmas produced during laser hole boring by a 25-ns duration 1-J ruby laser pulse are presented. The emitted line radiation originates from, C+++ to C+ depending upon the time relative to the laser pulse. Plasma temperatures of 12-14 eV during the laser pulse to about 4 eV, 140 ns after the laser pulse are obtained by comparing the spectroscopic results to a collisional-radiative equilibrium (CRE) model which bridges the gap between the local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) model and the coronal model.     

Spectra—A model for K-shell spectroscopy

X-ray spectroscopy is a powerful tool for understanding the kinetics of highly ionized plasmas. Its usefulness depends on the accuracy of the model used in analyzing spectra. We have developed a computer code for modeling and analyzing plasmas which is highly accurate as well as fast and easy to use. It produces synthetic spectra for hydrogen-like and helium-like ions at arbitrary density and temperature. Populations are calculated from rate equations including all relevant collisional and radiative process. The level populations of the hydrogen, helium and lithium-like ionization stages are calculated explicitly; those of all other ionization stages are lumped into one level. The microfield distribution and the shape of the line profiles are determined using detailed calculations. The code includes graphics to plot line ratios and synthetic spectra, and to do on-line analysis of experiments. The usefulness of this technique is demonstrated by analyzing the spectra from three different experiments: a laser irradiated aluminum disk; a neon gas puff pinch; and a laser imploded gas microballon.     

Modulation of ionization on laser frequency in ultra-short pulse intense laser-gas-target

Based on the dispersion relation of intense laser pulse propagating in gradually ionized plasma, this paper discusses the frequency modulation induced by ionization of an ultra-short intense laser pulse interacting with a gas target. The relationship between the frequency modulation and the ionization rate, the plasmas frequency variation, and the polarization of atoms （ions） is analysed. The numerical results indicate that, at high frequency, the polarization of atoms （ions） plays a more important role than plasma frequency variation in modulating the laser frequency, and the laser frequency variation is different at different positions of the laser pulse.     

Towards Stronger Coulomb Coupling in an Ultracold Neutral Plasma

Ultracold neutral plasmas are strongly coupled Coulomb systems that are generated by photoionizing lasercooled atoms close to the ionization threshold. The strong coupling parameter Γ is limited at times later than ～100 ns by disorder‐induced heating. A recent simulation predicted that higher values of Γ can be realized in ultracold neutral plasmas if the plasma ions are excited to higher ionization states. In this paper we present recent results from an experiment that increases the strong coupling of an ultracold neutral plasma by promoting the plasma ions to the second ionization state. Using laser‐induced fluorescence we map out the ion velocity distribution of the Ca⁺ ions in a partially doubly ionized plasma and show that the heating due to the second ionization depends on the timing of the second ionization laser pulses. We compare our results to MD simulations, which estimate that Γ increases from approximately 2.5 to 3.6. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Laser-driven acceleration of electrons in a partially ionized plasma channel

The generation of quasimonoenergetic electron beams, with energies up to 200 MeV, by a laser-plasma accelerator driven in a hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide is investigated. Injection and acceleration of electrons is found to depend sensitively on the delay between the onset of the discharge current and the arrival of the laser pulse. A comparison of spectroscopic and interferometric measurements suggests that injection is assisted by laser ionization of atoms or ions within the channel.
