极强激光场驱动超亮伽马辐射和正负电子对产生的研究进展

高功率超短超强激光脉冲的诞生开启了相对论非线性光学、高强场物理、新型激光聚变、实验室天体物理等前沿领域.近年来,随着数拍瓦级乃至更高峰值功率激光装置的建成,超强激光与等离子体相互作用进入到一个全新的高强场范畴.这种极强激光场与等离子体相互作用蕴含着丰富的物理过程,除了经典的波与粒子作用、相对论效应、有质动力效应等非线性物理过程外,量子电动力学(QED)效应变得格外重要,例如辐射阻尼效应、正负电子对产生、强伽马射线辐射、QED级联、真空极化等.本文主要介绍我们近年来在极端强激光场与等离子体相互作用中激发的QED效应以及伴随的超亮强伽马射线辐射和稠密正负电子对产生等方面的研究进展.     

Theoretical study on the Rocksalt structured positron annihilation in magnesium oxide

Based on the atomic superposition approximation （ATSUP） and first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave methods, the bulk and Mg mono-vacancy positron lifetime of magnesium oxide were calculated using Arponen-Pajamme and Borofiski-Nieminen positron-annihilation-rate interpolation formula respectively. The calculated values are in good agreement with experimental values and the first-principles method gives more convincing results. The positron annihilation density spectra analysis reveals that positrons mainly annihilate with valence electrons of oxygen atoms when the magnesium-vacancy appears within magnesium oxide.     

Studies on the mechanisms of powerful terahertz radiations from laser plasmas

A survey on the mechanisms of powerful terahertz (THz) radiation from laser plasmas is presented.Firstly,an analytical model is described,showing that a transverse net current formed in a plasma can be converted into THz radiations at the plasma oscillation frequency.This theory is applied to explain THz generation in a gas driven by two-color laser pulses.It is also applied to THz generation in a tenuous plasma driven by a chirped laser pulse,a few-cycle laser pulse,a DC/AC bias electric field.These are well verified by particle-in-cell simulations,demonstrating that THz radiations produced in these approaches are nearly single-cycles and linear polarized.In the chirped laser scheme and the few-cycle laser scheme,THz radiations with the peak field strength of tens of MV/cm and the peak power of gigawatt can be achieved with the incident laser intensity less than 10 17 W/cm 2.

自旋轨道耦合作用对碳纳米管电子能带结构的影响

本文考虑自旋轨道耦合作用的情况下,采用紧束缚近似螺旋对称模型计算了单壁碳纳米管的电子能带结构.研究发现:对于Armchair型单壁碳纳米管,自旋轨道耦合作用和弯曲效应共同导致了费米面Dirac点附近电子能带结构的能隙;对于Zigzag型和手性单壁碳纳米管,自旋轨道耦合作用使得电子最高占据态和最低未占据态产生能级劈裂,能级劈裂的大小不但与碳纳米管的直径和手性角密切相关,而且相对于费米面是不对称的;根据指数(n,m)可以将Zigzag型和手性单壁碳纳米管分为金属性碳纳米管(ν=0) 关键词： 单壁碳纳米管 自旋轨道耦合 紧束缚近似螺旋对称模型

Low-Threshold Mid-Infrared Optical Parametric Oscillator Using Periodically Poled LiNbO33

We report the generation of tunable mid-infrared optical pulses using all-solid-state pumped optical parametri coscillator in a periodically poled lithium niobate. Several ways were used to lower the threshold, resulting in a mean threshold as low as 6.5mW and an achievement of wavelength conversion in the 2.77-4.04μm spectral range. Continuous tuning range from 2.97 to 3.25μm was achieved. The maximum idler output power of 466mW at the wavelength of 3.41μm was obtained, which represents an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 19% from incident pump power to the idler output.
