飞秒激光-固体靶相互作用中超热电子能量分布的实验研究

用3TW飞秒激光器研究了激光-固体靶相互作用中产生的超热电子的能量分布.超热电子构成各向异性的能量分布：在靶法线方向，超热电子能谱呈类麦克斯韦分布，拟合的温度约为206keV，该方向占主导地位的加速机理是共振吸收；在激光反射方向，超热电子能谱先是出现一个局部的平台，然后逐渐衰减，呈现非类麦克斯韦分布，这是由于几种加热机理共同作用的结果，其中占主导地位的是反射激光对电子的加速.在靶法线方向超热电子的温度和产额均大于激光反射方向超热电子的温度和产额，证明共振吸收机理对电子的加速更有效.关键词：飞秒激光等离子体超热电子能谱

Experimental study on energy distribution of the hot electrons generated by femtosecond laser interacting with solid targets

This paper reports the results of the experiment of hot electron energy distribution during the femtosecond laser-solid target interaction. The hot electrons formed an anisotropic energy distribution. In the direction of the target normal, the energy spectrum of the hot electron was a Maxwellian-like distribution with an effective temperature of 206keV, which was due to the resonance absorption. In the direction of the specular reflection of laser, there appeared a local plateau of hot electron energy spectrum at the beginning and then it was decreased gradually, which maybe produced by several acceleration mechanisms. The effective temperature and the yield of hot electrons in the direction of the target normal is larger than those in the direction of the specular reflection of laser, which proves that the resonance absorption mechanism is more effective than others.
