Laboratory simulations of astrophysical blast waves with high energy lasers

We review recent efforts to simulate aspects of supernova remnants in laboratory experiments by creating energetic explosions with high energy lasers. High energy pulsed lasers are uniquely suited for these kinds of studies. By focusing a laser with pulse energy of a few joules to many hundreds of joules onto a solid target or into a dense gas target, explosive shock waves of very high Mach number can be created. With a well chosen set of laser and target parameters it has been shown by a number of groups that radiative blast waves can be produced. Such blast waves have dynamics dominated by radiation transport and exhibit unusual characteristics, the most important of which include hydrodynamic instabilities which may play an important role in the structure of the interstellar medium. As a result there are now prospects for gaining new insights into astronomical observations of supernova remnants by studying laboratory laser driven plasma systems.     

Investigation of ultrafast laser-driven radiative blast waves

We have examined the evolution of cylindrically symmetric blast waves produced by the deposition of femtosecond laser pulses in gas jets. In high- Z gases radiative effects become important. We observe the production of an ionization precursor ahead of the shock front and deceleration parameters below the adiabatic value of 1/2 (for a cylinder), an effect expected when the blast wave loses energy by radiative cooling. Despite significant radiative cooling, the blast waves do not appear to develop thin shell instabilities expected for strongly radiative waves. This is believed to be due to the stabilizing effect of a relatively thick blast wave shell resulting in part from electron thermal conduction effects.     

高重复频率激光脉冲光束大小对吸收玻璃损伤特征的影响

针对高重复频率对吸收性滤光片损伤问题,研究了高重复频率(kHz量级)激光脉冲的光束半径大小对吸收玻璃的形貌特征和损伤机理.研究发现在总的激光作用个数、单脉冲能量和脉冲作用频率固定时,吸收玻璃的损伤特性发生很大变化:在光束半径较大时,激光能量分散,主要损伤形貌是熔化破坏;随着光束半径的减小,激光脉冲能量变得集中,热量的累积效果变得明显,逐渐变成熔化破坏和气化破坏;当激光光束半径小到一定程度,则会由于光强过大使得介质表面发生击穿而产生激光等离子体冲击波,同时由于热量沉积的集中使光束作用中心处产生超热液体,当满足相爆炸发生的条件时,气化物、液滴和固体颗粒的混合物会向外飞溅,在损伤凹陷的周围形成气化物、液滴的冷凝区和固体颗粒溅射区. 关键词： 激光诱导损伤 高重复激光脉冲 吸收玻璃 相爆炸     

Laser induced microexplosions of a photosensitive polymer

Laser ablation of a photosensitive triazene polymer was studied in a micro region by means of a nanosecond imaging technique. The propagation of a blast wave, 100 ns after laser irradiation, sufficiently matched a planar blast wave model including the decomposed source mass which indicates characteristics of a microexplosion. The measured velocities of the fronts indicates two blast waves: an initially fast unsupported wave around the peak of the laser pulse, and a relatively slow supported wave involving the main component of the decomposition.     

Long duration light emission from femtosecond laser–target interactions

Time resolved emission from the interaction of ultra-short (∼200 fs) laser pulses with aluminum and copper targets was investigated. Measurements show that emission from the laser produced plasma in air is significantly more intense than in near vacuum conditions and that the emission in air can extend for periods exceeding 100 ns. Modeling the laser–target–air coupling shows that the laser–target interaction can lead to blast wave shock waves being launched in the ambient air and that the emission from the shocked air dominates over emission from the target surface. The long term emission measurements in air are in agreement with the modeling results.     

Experimental study on the Stokes effect in disordered birefringent microstructure fibers

In this paper, a 120-fs pulse transmission experiment is carried out using disordered birefringent microstructure fibers with cladding ventages. Through this experiment, it is found for the first time that remarkable Stokes and anti-Stokes waves can also be produced when the central wavelength of the incident pulse is in the normal dispersion regime of the microstructure fiber. The generation of the two waves can be explained by the four-wave mixing phase matching theory. Properties of the two waves under the action of femtosecond laser pulses with different parameters are studied. The results show that the central wavelength of anti-Stokes waves and Stokes waves produced under the two orthogonal polarization states shift by 63 nm and 160 nm, respectively. The strengths and central positions of the two waves in birefringent fibers can be controlled by adjusting the phase match condition and the polarization directions of incident pulses.

Evolution of shock waves formed by laser-induced breakdown in air

The evolution of shock waves produced by 7 ns laser pulses in air is investigated by time-resolved shadowgraph. A nodular structure of the shock wave is observed. It is found that the origin of the structure is the multi-longitudinal-microfocus caused by the astigmatism of the laser beam. The spherical shock waves formed by each microfocus expand gradually and collide with each other, resulting in the nodular structure of the shock wave.

Influence of air pressure on mechanical effect of laser plasma shock wave

The influence of air pressure on mechanical effect of laser plasma shock wave in a vacuum chamber produced by a Nd:YAG laser has been studied. The laser pulses with pulse width of 10ns and pulse energy of about 320mJ at 1.06$\mu $m wavelength is focused on the aluminium target mounted on a ballistic pendulum, and the air pressure in the chamber changes from $2.8\times 10^{3}$ to 1.01$\times $10$^{5 }$Pa. The experimental results show that the impulse coupling coefficient changes as the air pressure and the distance of the target from focus change. The mechanical effects of the plasma shock wave on the target are analysed at different distances from focus and the air pressure.     

Removal mechanisms of micro-scale particles by surface wave in laser cleaning

This paper is to investigate the mechanisms of micro-scale particle removal by surface wave, which was induced by a short pulse laser in a cleaning process. The authors analyzed the adhesive forces of particles on substrate surface and the clearance force produced by surface wave in laser cleaning. The physical model of particle removal by laser-induced surface wave was established to predict the removal area and the processing conditions of laser cleaning. In this research, a KrF excimer laser was applied to irradiate 304 stainless steel specimen distributed with copper particles to generate surface wave for copper particle removal. Considering that a time-varying and uniformly distributed heat source irradiates on material surface with thermao-elastic behavior, the displacement and acceleration of substrate induced by a pulsed laser were solved by an uncoupled thermal–mechanical analysis based on the finite element method. The processing parameters such as laser energy, laser spot size are discussed, respectively. A series of laser cleaning experiments were designed to compare with computation results. The results show that the removal area by surface wave beyond the laser spot increases with the laser energy and that, the surface acceleration decreases with the increase of the laser spot size.
