A wavelength-tunable fiber-coupled source of narrowband entangled photons.
We demonstrate a wavelength-tunable, fiber-coupled source of polarization- entangled photons with extremely high spectral brightness and quality of entanglement. Using a 25 mm PPKTP crystal inside a polarization Sagnac interferometer we detect a spectral brightness of 273000 pairs (s mW nm)(-1), a factor of 28 better than comparable previous sources while state tomography showed the two-photon ...
متن کاملQuasi-monoenergetic and tunable X-rays from a laser-driven Compton light source
The maximum achievable photon energy of compact, conventional, Compton-scattering X-ray sources is currently limited by the maximum permissible field gradient of conventional electron accelerators.1,2 An alternative compact Compton X-ray source architecture with no such limitation is based instead on a high-field-gradient laser–wakefield accelerator.3–6 In this case, a single high-power (100 TW...
متن کاملGeneration of Tunable, Monochromatic X-rays in the Laser Synchrotron Source Experiment*
Tunable, monochromatic x-rays have been generated in the Laser Synchrotron Source (LSS) experiment at the Naval Research Laboratory by Thomson backscattering of laser photons from a relativistic electron beam. Laser photons from a 5 J, 10 nsec, Nd:glass laser at 1053 nm wavelength are backscattered from a 4 MeV, 300 mA electron beam generated by an S-band RF gun. Recent experimental results inc...
متن کاملA 15 Mev Linear Electron Accelerator Based Source of Tunable Monochromatic X-rays
In an increasing range of research fields there is a strong demand of high-intensity tunable monochromatic X-ray sources. A promising new approach for the production of tunable high-intensity monochromatic beams in the hard X-ray region is the use of electron accelerators of moderate energy (10 MeV range). We developed at the 15 MeV linear electron accelerator of the Ghent University a monochro...
متن کاملIntense superradiant x rays from a compact source using a nanocathode array and emittance exchange.
A novel method of producing intense short wavelength radiation from relativistic electrons is described. The electrons are periodically bunched at the wavelength of interest enabling in-phase superradiant emission that is far more intense than from unbunched electrons. The periodic bunching is achieved in steps beginning with an array of beamlets emitted from a nanoengineered field emission arr...
