Because of their extremely high instantaneous powers, femtosecond lasers can color many nominally transparent materials. Although the excitations responsible for this defect formation occur on subpicosecond time scales, subsequent interactions between the resulting electronic and lattice defects complicate the evolution of color center formation and decay. These interactions must be understood in order to account for the long-term behavior of coloration. In this work, we probe the evolution of color centers generated by femtosecond laser radiation in potassium chloride and potassium bromide single crystals on time scales from microseconds to hundreds of seconds. By using an appropriately chosen probe laser focused through the femtosecond laser spot, we follow the changes in coloration due to individual or multiple femtosecond pulses and the evolution of that coloration for long times after femtosecond laser radiation is terminated. 相似文献

The activation of color centers in the bismuth aluminum-boron-phosphate glass by high-intensity femtosecond laser radiation
is experimentally studied. The dynamics of the laser-induced emitting centers in the bulk of sample is characterized. The
photoactivation of bismuth glasses is possibly related to the recharging of structural precursors, which serve as effective
electron traps and whose possible configuration is discusses. The effect of the femtosecond irradiation involves the initiation
of the nonlinear ionization of the glass matrix and the generation of plasma with the concentration of carriers that is sufficiently
high to provide almost complete recharging of precursors over several laser pulses. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of cerium oxide on the precipitation of Ag nanoparticles in silicate glass via a femtosecond laser irradiation and successive annealing. Absorption spectra show that Ce3+ ions may absorb part of the laser energy via multiphoton absorption and release free electrons, resulting in an increase of the concentration of Ag atoms and a decrease of the concentration of hole-trapped color centers, which influence precipitation of the Ag nanoparticles. In addition, we found that the formed Ag0 may reduce Ce4+ ions to Ce3+ ions during the annealing process, which inhibits the growth of the Ag nanoparticles. PACS 78.55.Qr; 78.67.Bf; 81.05.Pj 相似文献

The spatial-temporal dynamics of the photochemical conversion of color centers with varying multipolarity and orientation
of quantum transitions in irradiated anisotropic crystals exposed to pulsed polarized femtosecond optical radiation and the
resulting spatial distribution of the residual and newly-formed color centers are studied. The properties of the concurrent
luminscence and photoconductive processes closely related to the photochemical transformation of light-absorbing quantum systems
are also examined. A femtosecond laser technique is proposed, which allows extended spatial-periodic structures or narrow
profiles of color-center concentrations, including single thin layers or dips, to be formed at a specified depth from the
crystal surface through photochemical transformations.

We report the observation of crystallization and simultaneous formation of surface microstructures in hydrogenated amorphous
silicon (a-Si:H) thin films as one step laser processing. Light trapping microstructures of around 300 nm in height were formed
on a-Si:H films of thickness in the range of 1.5 μm to 2 μm deposited on soda lime glass after exposure to femtosecond laser
pulses. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images show the formation of spikes that are around 1 μm part and their heights
could be controlled by the laser fluences. Atomic force microscope (AFM) images were taken to study the roughness created
on the surface. The mean roughness of the textured surface increases with laser fluence at smaller power densities, and for
power densities beyond 0.5 J/cm2 the film removal deteriorates the texturing. X-ray diffraction results indicate the formation of a nano-crystalline structure
with (111) and (311) crystal orientation after the laser treatment. The observed black color and enhanced optical absorption
in the near infrared region in laser treated films may be due to a combined effect of light trapping in the micro-structured
silicon surface because of multiple total internal reflections, phase change in the film, possible defect sites induced after
laser treatment and formation of SiOx. Demonstration of light trapping microstructures in thin a-Si:H films and simultaneous crystallization could provide new
opportunities for optoelectronic devices.

Temporal evolution of absorption induced by single femtosecond pulse (13Ors, 800nm) with high intensity in LiNbO3 is obtained using the probe shadow imaging technique in order to investigate light-induced electron relaxation processes. By saturating the polaron density with a high intensity laser pulse, ultra-fast decay process on picosecond time scale is observed. The decay time constant is about 141 ps and it is attributed to the direct interband electron-hole recombination process. 相似文献

A new method of determining the diffusion characteristics of quantum systems in crystals is investigated in the present paper on the example of color centers. The method is based on a spatially selective photochemical crystal transformation upon exposure to optical radiation pulses. The principal feasibility of implementation of this method for the determination of the diffusion coefficient of color centers based on the observed dynamics of spatially modulated distribution of their concentrations induced by optical radiation with femtosecond coherence is demonstrated. 相似文献

Photothermochemical conversion of simple color centers (which include from one to four anionic vacancies) and highly aggregated ones in additively colored crystals of calcium fluoride doped by sodium is studied. The annealing of crystals with a low sodium content in a reducing atmosphere (additive coloration) leads to the predominant formation of simple color centers, which convert into highly aggregated centers under the joint action of heating and irradiation in absorption bands of simple centers. The irradiation of highly aggregated centers into their absorption bands and simultaneous heating causes these centers to convert into simple centers. The additive coloration of crystals with a relatively high sodium content leads to the predominant formation of highly aggregated centers. The heating of these crystals along with the irradiation in absorption bands of highly aggregated centers causes these centers to convert into simple centers. The formation of different color centers in the course of additive coloration of crystals with different impurity content and different results of photothermochemical conversion of centers in these crystals are connected with the dual action of impurities. Anion vacancies, which compensate the charge of the impurity alkali metal, facilitate the aggregation of color centers. At the same time, the alkali impurity stabilizes simple color centers. 相似文献

Single-color femtosecond pump-probe experiments were performed to investigate the time dependence of laser-induced ultrafast
desorption and deformation processes of silver nanoparticles in glass. After laser excitation at wavelengths close to the
surface plasmon resonance, transient extinction changes were found to exhibit dynamics on quite different time scales ranging
from sub-picoseconds to some hundred ps. The slowest observed decay component is identified as characteristic for the deformation/desorption
processes. Possible mechanisms for these processes are discussed.

The temporal evolution of refractive-index change produced by a tightly focused femtosecond (fs) laser pulse inside a soda-lime glass plate was investigated by use of a transient lens method with subpicosecond time resolution. An oscillating behavior of the light intensity in the central region of the probe beam was observed 0-1500 ps after irradiation of the plate. The oscillation was interpreted in terms of a rapid temperature increase and the ensuing propagation of the pressure wave. This study is to our knowledge the first real-time observation of refractive-index change inside a glass induced by a fs laser pulse. 相似文献

Femtosecond pulses of fundamental Cr:forsterite laser radiation are used as a pump field to tune the frequency of copropagating second-harmonic pulses of the same laser through cross-phase modulation in a photonic crystal fiber. Sub-100-kW femtosecond pump pulses coupled into a photonic crystal fiber with an appropriate dispersion profile can shift the central frequency of the probe field by more than 100 nm, suggesting a convenient way to control propagation and spectral transformations of ultrashort laser pulses. 相似文献

Recent papers have speculated that neutral sodium atoms are produced in significant quantities in glass by electron bombardment. XPS measurements on an electron-bombarded soda lime silicate glass revealed no evidence for neutral atoms at the surface or at depths up to the maximum penetration of the electron beam. 相似文献

We characterize the temporal structure of high-order harmonic radiation on both the femtosecond and attosecond time scales. The harmonic emission is characterized by mixed-color two-photon ionization with an infrared femtosecond laser using a Mach–Zehnder interferometer where both pump and probe arms travel completely separate paths. In a first experiment, we measure the duration and chirp of individual harmonics. In a second experiment, we resolve, for the first time with this type of setup, the attosecond beating of several harmonics generated under conditions similar to the first experiment. We suggest that the results of both measurements can be combined to determine the full attosecond time structure of the harmonic emission. PACS 32.80.Rm; 42.65.Ky 相似文献

Color center generation by femtosecond laser pulses (30 fs) is observed in a fluence range below the damage threshold in an alkali-free barium borosilicate (BBS) glass, and in a thin layer of SiO2 on a fused silica substrate. The color centers are characterized spectroscopically. The optical density of the color centers in BBS glass is by two orders of magnitude higher than that in silica. A healing process with a time constant of about 30 h can be found. PACS 42.62.-b; 61.80.Ba; 71.55.Jv 相似文献

The coherent interaction of femtosecond laser pulses in the pump-probe regime has been experimentally studied in the time domain by monitoring light reflection from a tellurium single crystal. The optical response of the probed medium exhibits periodic variations at a frequency equal to that of the exciting laser radiation. Experimental dependences of the observed “coherent artifact” on the pump/probe intensity ratio, the number of accumulated pulses, and the mutual orientation of the polarization vectors of electromagnetic fields and the crystallographic axes are well described by the proposed phenomenological model. 相似文献

The release of energy in the form of the light sum of thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL), stored under conditions of self-focusing and the multiple filamentation of femtosecond laser radiation during the interaction between model wide-bandgap dielectric crystals of lithium fluoride is studied. It is shown that F2 color centers are important centers of emission in the TSL process. 相似文献

We report on the optical properties of a structurally modified silicate glass doped with Au ions. The area in the vicinity of the focal point of an 800-nm femtosecond laser in a glass sample became gray as a result of the formation of color centers after laser irradiation and turned red because of precipitation of Au nanoparticles after further annealing at 550 degrees C for 30 min. When the glass was excited by UV light at 365 nm, yellowish-white and orange-yellow emissions were observed in the laser-irradiated and the Au-nanoparticle-precipitated area, respectively. An optical Kerr shutter experiment showed that the Au nanoparticle-precipitated glass had an ultrafast nonlinear optical response, and the third-order nonlinear susceptibility was estimated to be approximately 10(-11) esu. 相似文献
