Electron density and temperature measurements in a laser produced carbon plasma
Plasma generated by fundamental radiation from a Nd:YAG laser focused onto a graphite target is studied spectroscopically. Measured line profiles of several ionic species were used to infer electron temperature and density at several sections located in front of the target surface. Line intensities of successive ionization states of carbon were used for electron temperature calculations. Stark ...
متن کاملInfluence of ambient gas on the temperature and density of laser produced carbon plasma
The effect of ambient gas on the dynamics of the plasma generated by laser ablation of a carbon target using 1.06 mm radiation from a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser has been investigated using a spectroscopic technique. The emission characteristics of the carbon plasma produced in argon, helium and air atmospheres are found to depend strongly on the nature and pressure of the surrounding gas. It has b...
متن کاملWavefront-sensor-based electron density measurements for laser-plasma accelerators.
Characterization of the electron density in laser produced plasmas is presented using direct wavefront analysis of a probe laser beam. The performance of a laser-driven plasma-wakefield accelerator depends on the plasma wavelength and hence on the electron density. Density measurements using a conventional folded-wave interferometer and using a commercial wavefront sensor are compared for diffe...
متن کاملTemporal and Spatial Behavior of Electron Density and Temperature in a Laser-Produced Plasma from YBa2 Cu3 O7
Spectroscop ic studies of laser -induced p lasm a from a high -temperature superconducting mater ial, v iz., YBa2Cu 3O7 (YBCO), have been carried out. Electron temperature and electron density measurements were made from spectral data. The Stark broadening of emission lin es was used to determ ine the electron density, an d the ratio of line in tensities was exploited for the determ ination of ...
متن کاملTime evolution of the electron density and temperature in laser-produced plasmas from YBa2Cu3O7
Laser radiation at 1.06 μm from a pulsed Nd:YAG laser was focused onto a multielement YBa2Cu3O7 target in vacuum and the plasma thus generated was studied using time-resolved spectroscopic techniques. Line broadening of the Ba I emission line at 553.5 nm was monitored as a function of time elapsed after the incidence of a laser pulse on the target. Measured line profiles of barium species were ...
