Influence of circular aperture on high-order harmonic generation

The influence of circular aperture on the intensity of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) with intense femtosecond laser pulse was studied both experimentally and theoretically. The intensity variety of HHG with the diameter of circular aperture was observed in pulsed Ar gas. The result was discussed and interpreted in terms of the theory of Hankel transform. It is found that using the Gaussian beam truncated by an aperture could enhance the conversion efficiency of HHG at certain conditions.     

双光束相干控制产生多次谐波的实验验证

利用两束相干度可改变的飞秒脉冲光对产生的五次谐波的强度特性进行了研究，发现谐波信号的强度随相干程度的增大而增加，谐波信号的最大值相对于相干零点(双光束相干度最大处)是非对称的，从而证明了合成的激光脉冲波形变化对谐波信号的影响.同时对谐波的受激放大理论进行了初步的实验探索和展望. 关键词： 五次谐波 波形变化 相干 受激放大
