We generated a record peak intensity of 0.7 x 10(22) W/cm2 by focusing a 45-TW laser beam with an f/0.6 off-axis paraboloid. The aberrations of the paraboloid and the low-energy reference laser beam were measured and corrected, and a focal spot size of 0.8 microm was achieved. It is shown that the peak intensity can be increased to 1.0 x 10(22) W/cm2 by correction of the wave front of a 45-TW beam relative to the reference beam. The phase and amplitude measurement provides for an efficient full characterization of the focal field. 相似文献

A sequential three-dimensional (3D) particle-in-cell simulation code PICPSI-3D with a user friendly graphical user interface
(GUI) has been developed and used to study the interaction of plasma with ultrahigh intensity laser radiation. A case study
of laser–plasma-based electron acceleration has been carried out to assess the performance of this code. Simulations have
been performed for a Gaussian laser beam of peak intensity 5 × 1019 W/cm2 propagating through an underdense plasma of uniform density 1 × 1019 cm − 3, and for a Gaussian laser beam of peak intensity 1.5 × 1019 W/cm2 propagating through an underdense plasma of uniform density 3.5 × 1019 cm − 3. The electron energy spectrum has been evaluated at different time-steps during the propagation of the laser beam. When the
plasma density is 1 × 1019 cm − 3, simulations show that the electron energy spectrum forms a monoenergetic peak at ~14 MeV, with an energy spread of ±7 MeV.
On the other hand, when the plasma density is 3.5 × 1019 cm − 3, simulations show that the electron energy spectrum forms a monoenergetic peak at ~23 MeV, with an energy spread of ±7.5 MeV. 相似文献

Determination and understanding the photon beam attenuation by the photon beam modifier and the radiation beam softening for clinical use is more important part of material study for the beam modifier enhancements and the linac improvements. A Monte Carlo model was used to simulate 6 MeV photon beams from a Varian Clinac 2100 accelerator with the flattening filter and the later was replaced by the aluminum slab with variable thickness. The Monte Carlo geometry was validated by a gamma index acceptance rate of 99% in PDD and 98% in dose profiles, the gamma criteria was 3% for dose difference and 3 mm for distance to agreement. The purpose was to investigate aluminum material attenuation and beam softening coefficients as a function of the inserted aluminum slab thickness and of off-axis distance. The attenuation and beam softening coefficients were not identical for the same off-axis distance and they varied as a function of aluminum slab thickness. The results of our study were shown that the beam softening coefficients were varied with thickness beam modifier material used for beam softening and the off-axis distance inside the irradiation field. Thereafter, the softening coefficient a 1 have a maximum of 2.5 × 10–1 cm–1 for the aluminum slab thickness of 1 mm, 1.4 × 10–1 cm–1 for the aluminum slab thickness of 1.5 mm and 4.47 × 10–2 cm–1 for the aluminum slab thickness of 2 mm. The maximum of the second softening coefficient a 2 was 1.02 × 10–2 cm–2 for the aluminum slab thickness of 1 mm, was 1.92 × 10–2 cm–2 for the aluminum slab thickness of 1.5 mm and was 1.93 × 10–2 cm–2 for the aluminum slab thickness of 2 mm. Our study can be a basic investigation of photon beam softening material that will be used in the future linac configuration and also in the photon beam modifiers. 相似文献

The nonlinear scattering of an ultrashort laser pulse by free electrons is considered. The pulse is described in the “Mexican
hat” wavelet basis. The equation of motion for a charged particle in the field of a plane electromagnetic wave has an exact
solution allowing, together with the instant spectrum approximation, the calculation of the intensity of nonlinear Thomson
scattering for a high-intensity laser pulse. The spectral distribution of scattered radiation for the entire pulse duration
is found by integrating with respect to time. The maximum of the emission spectrum of a free electron calculated in 1019–1021 W/cm2 fields lies in the UV spectral region between 3 and 12 eV. A part of the continuous spectrum achieves high photon energies.
One percent of the scattered energy for the field intensity 1020 W/cm2 is concentrated in the range ħω > 2.7 × 102 eV, for a field intensity of 1021 W/cm2 in the range ħΩ > 7.9 × 102 eV, and for an intensity of 1022 W/cm2 in the range ħΩ > 2.45 × 105 eV. These results allow us to estimate nonlinear scattering as a source of hard X-rays. 相似文献

Two methods of preparation of the devices for visualization of pulsed and continuous near-IR (near infrared) are described
and the results of conversion of pulsed and continuous IR (800–1360 nm) laser radiation into the visible range of spectra
(400–680 nm) by using a transparent substrate covered with the particles (including nanoparticles) of effective nonlinear
materials of GaSe

S1 − x
(0.2 ≤ x ≤ 0.8) are presented. Converted light can be detected in transmission or reflection geometry as a visible spot corresponding
to the real size of the incident laser beam. Developed device structures can be used for checking if the laser is working
or not, for optical adjustment, for visualization of distribution of laser radiation over the cross of the beam and for investigation
of the content of the laser radiation. Low energy (power density) limit for visualization of the IR laser pulses with 2–3
ps duration for these device structures are: between 4.6–2.1 μJ (3 × 10−4−1 × 10−4 W/cm2) at 1200 nm; between 8.4–2.6 μJ (4.7 × 10−4−1.5 × 10−4 W/cm2) at 1300 nm; between 14.4–8.1 μJ (8.2 × 10−4–4.6 × 10−4 W/cm2) at 1360 nm. Threshold damage density is more than 10 MW/cm2 at λ = 1060 nm, pulse duration τ = 35 ps. The results are compared with commercially existing laser light visualizators. 相似文献

By focusing 40-TW, 30-fs laser pulses to the peak intensity of 1019 W/cm2 onto a supersonic He gas jet, we generate quasi-monoenergetic electron beams for plasma density in the specific range 1.5×1019 cm-3≤ne≤3.5×1019 cm-3. We show that the energy, charge, divergence and pointing stability of the beam can be controlled by changing ne, and that higher electron energies and more stable beams are produced for lower densities. The observed variations are explained
physically by the interplay among pump depletion and dephasing between accelerated electrons and plasma wave. Two-dimensional
particle-in-cell simulations support the explanation by showing the evolution of the laser pulse in plasma and the specifics
of electron injection and acceleration. An optimized quasi-monoenergetic beam of over 300 MeV and 10 mrad angular divergence
is demonstrated at a plasma density of ne≃1.5×1019 cm-3.

A systematic research on intensity clamping phenomenon was conducted both in air and argon by using a TW level femtosecond
laser. Though the laser peak power was increased from 0.1 up to 1.5 TW in the experiment, highly stabilized peak intensity
inside the filament was observed in both gases. The peak intensities inside filaments were experimentally determined to be
about 6.4 × 1013 W/cm2 (f = 20 cm) in air and 1.2, 1.3, and 1.7 × 1014 W/cm2 when different focal lenses (f = 100, 60, and 20 cm) were used in argon, respectively. 相似文献

Electronic surface parameters of GaAs have been determined from a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the relative photoluminescence
intensity at 300 K. Characteristics of etched (100) surfaces ofn- andp-type liquid phase epitaxial GaAs have been found to be governed by negative surface charges. A density of charged surface
states of about 1012 cm−2 and a band bending of 0.59 eV have been found forn-type material with an electron concentration of 1.1×1017 cm−3. Forp-type samples with hole densities ranging from 6×1015 to 4.3×1018 cm−3 the estimated density of negatively charged surface states was below 2×1011 cm−2, and the band bending was not more than a few kT. 相似文献

We present an application of continuous-wave (cw) cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (CEAS) with off-axis alignment geometry
of the cavity and with time integration of the cavity output intensity for detection of narrow-band and broadband absorbers
using single-mode red diode lasers at λ=687.1 nm and λ=662 nm, respectively. Off-axis cw CEAS was applied to kinetic studies
of the nitrate radical using a broadband absorption line at λ=662 nm. A rate constant for the reaction between the nitrate
radical and E-but-2-eneof (3.78±0.17)×10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 was measured using a discharge-flow system. A nitrate-radical noise-equivalent (1σ≡ root-mean-square variation of the signal)
detection sensitivity of 5.5×109 molecule cm-3 was achieved in a flow tube with a diameter of 4 cm and for a mirror reflectivity of ∼99.9% and a lock-in amplifier time
constant of 3 s. In this case, a noise-equivalent fractional absorption per one optical pass of 1.6×10-6 was demonstrated at a detection bandwidth of 1 Hz. A wavelength-modulation technique (modulation frequency of 10 kHz) in
conjunction with off-axis cw CEAS has also been used for recording 1f- and 2f-harmonic spectra of the RR(15) absorption of the b1Σg
+-X3Σg
- (1,0) band of molecular oxygen at =14553.947 cm-1. Noise-equivalent fractional absorptions per one optical pass of 1.35×10-5, 6.9×10-7 and 1.9×10-6 were obtained for direct detection of the time-integrated cavity output intensity, 1f- and 2f-harmonic detection, respectively,
with a mirror reflectivity of ∼99.8%, a cavity length of 0.22 m and a detection bandwidth of 1 Hz.

Using three-dimensional test particle simulations, we investigated electrons accelerated by a focused flat-top laser beam
at different intensities and flatness levels of the beam profile before focusing in vacuum. The results show that the presence
of sidelobes around the main focal spot of the focused flat-top laser beam influences the optimum (as far as electron acceleration
is concerned) initial momentum (and incident angle) of electrons for acceleration. The difference of initial conditions between
laser beams with and without sidelobes becomes evident when the laser field is strong enough (a0>10, corresponding to intensities I>1×1020 W/cm2 for the laser wavelength λ=1 μm, where a0 is a dimensionless parameter measuring laser intensity). The difference becomes more pronounced at increasing a0. Because of the presence of sidelobes, there exist three typical CAS (capture and acceleration scenario) channels when a0≥30 (corresponding to I>1×1021 W/cm2 for λ=1 μm). The energy spread of the outgoing electrons is also discussed in detail.

The terahertz (THz) frequency radiation production as a result of nonlinear interaction of high intense laser beam with low density ripple in a magnetized plasma has been studied. If the appropriate phase matching conditions are satisfied and the frequency of the ripple is appropriate then this difference frequency can be brought in the THz range. Self focusing (filamentation) of a circularly polarized beam propagating along the direction of static magnetic field in plasma is first investigated within extended‐paraxial ray approximation. The beam gets focused when the initial power of the laser beam is greater than its critical power. Resulting localized beam couples with the pre‐existing density ripple to produce a nonlinear current driving the THz radiation. By changing the strength of the magnetic field, one can enhance or suppress the THz emission. The expressions for the laser beam width parameter, the electric field vector of the THz wave have been obtained. For typical laser beam and plasma parameters with the incident laser intensity ≈ 1014 W/cm2, laser beam radius (r0) = 50 μm, laser frequency (ω0) = 1.8848 × 1014rad/s, electron plasma (low density rippled) wave frequency (ω0) = 1.2848 × 1014 rad/s, plasma density (n0) = 5.025 × 1017cm–3, normalized ripple density amplitude (μ)=0.1, the produced THz emission can be at the level of Giga watt (GW) in power (© 2012 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Presently, large efforts are conducted toward the development of highly brilliant γ beams via Compton back scattering of photons from a high-brilliance electron beam, either on the basis of a normal-conducting
electron linac or a (super-conducting) Energy Recovery Linac (ERL). Particularly, ERLs provide an extremely brilliant electron
beam, thus enabling the generation of highest-quality γ beams. A 2.5 MeV γ beam with an envisaged intensity of 1015 photons s−1, as ultimately envisaged for an ERL-based γ-beam facility, narrow band width (10−3), and extremely low emittance (10−4 mm2 mrad2) offers the possibility to produce a high-intensity bright polarized positron beam. Pair production in a face-on irradiated
W converter foil (200 μm thick, 10 mm long) would lead to the emission of 2×1013 (fast) positrons per second, which is four orders of magnitude higher compared to strong radioactive 22Na sources conventionally used in the laboratory. Using a stack of converter foils and subsequent positron moderation, a high-intensity
low-energy beam of moderated positrons can be produced. Two different source setups are presented: a high-brightness positron
beam with a diameter as low as 0.2 mm, and a high-intensity beam of 3×1011 moderated positrons per second. Hence, profiting from an improved moderation efficiency, the envisaged positron intensity
would exceed that of present high-intensity positron sources by a factor of 100. 相似文献

We present results on the growth of highly organised, reproducible, periodic microstructure arrays on a stainless steel substrate
using multi-pulsed Nd:YAG (wavelength of 1064 nm, pulse duration of 7 ns, repetition rate of 25 kHz, beam quality factor of
M
2∼1.5) laser irradiation in standard atmospheric environment (room temperature and normal pressure) with laser spot diameter
of the target being ∼50 μm. The target surface was irradiated at laser fluence of ∼2.2 J/cm2 and intensity of ∼0.31×109 W/cm2, resulting in the controllable generation of arrays of microstructures with average periods ranging from ∼30 to ∼70 μm, depending
on the hatching overlap between the consecutive scans. The received tips of the structures were either below or at the level
of the original substrate surface, depending on the experimental conditions. The peculiarity of our work is on the utilised
approach for scanning the laser beam over the surface. A possible mechanism for the formation of the structures is proposed. 相似文献

CW CO2-laser annealing of arsenic implanted silicon was investigated in comparison with thermal annealing. Ion channeling, ellipsometry,
and Hall effect measurements were performed to characterize the annealed layers and a correlation among the different methods
was made. The laser annealing was done with power densities of 100 to 640 W cm−2 for 1 to 20 s. It was found that the lattice disorder produced during implantation can be completely annealed out by laser
annealing with a power density of 500 W cm−2 and the arsenic atoms are brought on lattice sites up to 96±2%. The maximum sheet carrier concentration of 6×1015 cm−2 was obtained for 1×1016 cm−2 implantation after laser annealing, which was up to 33% higher than that after thermal annealing at 600 to 900°C for 30 min. 相似文献

Diacetylene monomer containing p-nitrophenyl azobenzene moiety (NADA) was synthesized. Silver nanoparticles with different
concentrations were adulterated in the above polymerized NADA (PNADA) films and the third-order nonlinear optical properties
were investigated in detail. UV–vis spectra and transmission electron microscopy were used to confirm the formation of PNADA/Ag
nanocomposite films. The silver nanoparticles (average size of 10 nm) were well dispersed in the polymer films. The value
of the nonlinear refractive index n
2 for PNADA films (8.48×10−15 cm2/W) was much higher than that of pure polydiacetylene films. Further, the introduction of silver nanoparticles into the PNADA
polymer films led to the further enhancement of nonlinear optical properties. The maximum value of n
2 for PNADA/Ag nanocomposite films could be 11.6×10−15 cm2/W. This enhancement should be ascribed to the surface plasmon resonance of silver nanoparticles. 相似文献

Gold nanorods manifest a readily tunable longitudinal plasmon resonance with light and consequently have potential for use
in photothermal therapeutics. Recent work by others has shown how gold nanoshells and rods can be used to target cancer cells,
which can then be destroyed using relatively high power laser radiation (∼1×105 to 1×1010 W/m2). Here we extend this concept to demonstrate how gold nanorods can be modified to bind to target macrophage cells, and show
that high intensity laser radiation is not necessary, with even 5×102 W/m2 being sufficient, provided that a total fluence of ∼30 J/cm2 is delivered. We used the murine cell line RAW 264.7 and the monoclonal antibody CD11b, raised against murine macrophages,
as our model system and a 5 mW solid state diode laser as our energy source. Exposure of the cells labeled with gold nanorods
to a laser fluence of 30 J/cm2 resulted in 81% cell death compared to only 0.9% in the control, non-labeled cells. 相似文献

of a polyimide thin film were investigated. Large third-order nonlinear refraction (n

refraction than that of a mono-azo dye doped PMMA thin film (n

n∼10−2) under different pump intensities was investigated; it was much larger than that of the mono-azo dye doped PMMA thin film
(▵

with decreasing laser power output. The glow intensity reaches a maximum at t = 1.4 μs and rises with laser energy. Typical sizes of the emitting area on the laser torch are determined. 相似文献

We present an application of cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy with an off-axis alignment of the cavity formed by two
spherical mirrors and with time integration of the cavity-output intensity for detection of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and iodine monoxide (IO) radicals using a violet laser diode at λ=404.278 nm. A noise-equivalent (1σ≡ root-mean-square variation
of the signal) fractional absorption for one optical pass of 4.5×10-8 was demonstrated with a mirror reflectivity of ∼0.99925, a cavity length of 0.22 m and a lock-in-amplifier time constant
of 3 s. Noise-equivalent detection sensitivities towards nitrogen dioxide of 1.8×1010 molecule cm-3 and towards the IO radical of 3.3×109 molecule cm-3 were achieved in flow tubes with an inner diameter of 4 cm for a lock-in-amplifier time constant of 3 s. Alkyl peroxy radicals
were detected using chemical titration with excess nitric oxide (RO2+NO→RO+NO2). Measurement of oxygen-atom concentrations was accomplished by determining the depletion of NO2 in the reaction NO2+O→NO+O2. Noise-equivalent concentrations of alkyl peroxy radicals and oxygen atoms were 3×1010 molecule cm-3 in the discharge-flow-tube experiments.
