Femtosecond laser ablation of DAST

High rate femtosecond (fs) laser ablation of the organic salt 4-N,N-dimethylamino-4-N-methyl-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST), an organic crystal with very high optical nonlinearities has been demonstrated. The threshold fluence and the ideal fluence range for damage free ablation for the wavelengths 550, 600, and 775 nm have been determined and the quality of the produced grooves has been investigated. The threshold fluences are in the order of 10–70 mJ/cm² and the ideal fluence range for damage free ablation is ranging from 30 to 300 mJ/cm², depending on the wavelength. The optimal focussing for ablation has been investigated and first results towards the structuring of a ridge waveguide are presented. We conclude that this method is most promising for waveguide patterning of DAST surfaces for integrated optics applications.

Further Acceleration of MeV Electrons by a Relativistic Laser Pulse

With the development of photocathode rf electron gun, electrons with high-brightness and mono-energy can be obtained easily. By numerically solving the relativistic equations of motion of an electron generated from this facility in laser fields modelled by a circular polarized Gaussian laser pulse, we find the electron can obtain high energy gain from the laser pulse. The corresponding acceleration distance for this electron driven by the ascending part of the laser pulse is much longer than the Rayleigh length, and the light amplitude experienced on the electron is very weak when the laser pulse overtakes the electron. The electron is accelerated effectively and the deceleration can be neglected. For intensities around 10¹⁹ W•μm²/cm², an electron's energy gain near 0.1 GeV can be realized when its initial energy is 4.5 MeV, and the final velocity of the energetic electron is parallel with the propagation axis. The energy gain can be up to 1 GeV if the intensity is about 10²¹ W•μm²/cm². The final energy gain of the electron as a function of its initial conditions and the parameters of the laser beam has also been discussed.

等离子体密度对激光拉曼放大机理的影响

等离子体中的背向拉曼散射机理可以用来产生超短超强的激光脉冲. 本文采用粒子模拟方法模拟研究了等离子体密度对激光拉曼放大过程的影响. 研究发现, 过低的等离子体密度会导致等离子体波提前波破而降低能量转换效率; 而过高的等离子体密度又会导致其他不稳定性的快速增长, 限制作用距离和输出能量. 因此, 拉曼放大机理的最佳等离子体密度应处于等离子体波破的密度阈值附近, 可以获得最高的能量转换效率和能量输出. 另外, 空间频谱分析显示放大激光的强度饱和主要来自于自相位调制不稳定性的发展. 利用10¹³ W·cm^-2的抽运激光脉冲, 模拟证实拉曼放大机理可有效地将种子激光的强度从10¹³ W·cm^-2 放大到10¹⁷ W·cm^-2, 脉宽压缩到40 fs, 且能量转换效率达到58%.

BaF radical: A promising candidate for laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping

Recently, there have been great interest and advancement in the field of laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping of molecules. The rich internal structure of molecules naturally lends themselves to extensive and exciting applications. In this paper, the radical~(138)Ba~(19) F, as a promising candidate for laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping, is discussed in detail.The highly diagonal Franck–Condon factors between the X~2Σ~+_(1/2)and A~2Π_(1/2) states are first confirmed with three different methods. Afterwards, with the effective Hamiltonian approach and irreducible tensor theory, the hyperfine structure of the X~2Σ~+_(1/2)state is calculated accurately. A scheme for laser cooling is given clearly. Besides, the Zeeman effects of the upper(A~2Π_(1/2)) and lower(X~2Σ~+_(1/2)) levels are also studied, and their respective g factors are obtained under a weak magnetic field.Its large g factor of the upper state A~2Π_(1/2) is advantageous for magneto-optical trapping. Finally, by studying Stark effect of Ba F in the X~2Σ~+_(1/2), we investigate the dependence of the internal effective electric field on the applied electric field. It is suggested that such a laser-cooled Ba F is also a promising candidate for precision measurement of electron electric dipole moment.
