Amplification of pulses in nonlinear geometric optics
In this companion paper to our study of amplification of wavetrains [CGW13], we study weakly stable semilinear hyperbolic boundary value problems with pulse data. Here weak stability means that exponentially growing modes are absent, but the so-called uniform Lopatinskii condition fails at some boundary frequency in the hyperbolic region. As a consequence of this degeneracy there is again an am...
متن کاملGeneration of single and periodically repeated powerful ultrashort microwave pulses
Generation of powerful ultrashort microwave pulses (USP) is of interest for a large number of practical applications, including radars with high resolution, plasma diagnostics, spectroscopy etc. In order to achieve this purpose many methods well-known in laser physics can be implemented in microwave electronics. In the last decade significant progress was achieved in generation of microwave USP...
متن کاملEnhancement of plasma wakefield generation and self-compression of femtosecond laser pulses by ionization gradients
As lasers become progressively higher in power, optical damage thresholds will become a limiting factor. Using the non-linear optics of plasma may be a way to circumvent these limits. In this paper, we report on simulations showing an enhancement to plasma wakefield self-compression of femtosecond laser pulses due to an ionization gradient at the leading edge of the pulse. By operating in a reg...
متن کاملGeneration of electromagnetic fields of extremely high intensity by coherent summation of Cherenkov superradiance pulses.
We demonstrate both theoretically and experimentally the possibility of correlating the phase of a Cherenkov superradiance (SR) pulse to the sharp edge of a current pulse, when spontaneous emission of the electron bunch edge serves as the seed for SR processes. By division of the driving voltage pulse across several parallel channels equipped with independent cathodes we can synchronize several...
متن کاملGeneration of high power, sub-picosecond 10 μm pulses via self-phase modulation followed by compression
We present an ongoing experiment where high power, sub-picosecond 10 μm laser pulses will be produced at 1 Hz. To achieve this 3 ps pulses of a 2 GW CO2 laser were broadened via self-phase modulation in GaAs and compressed in a dispersive element. Temporal and spectral data are presented which demonstrate the possibility of compression by more than a factor of 3.
