Ultrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation with longitudinally nonuniform quasi-phase- matching gratings: pulse compression and shaping
We present a theory of ultrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation (SHG) in materials with longitudinally nonuniform quasi-phase-matching (QPM) gratings. We derive an expression for the output second-harmonic field generated in an arbitrary QPM grating from an arbitrary fundamental field, valid for arbitrary material dispersion in the undepleted-pump approximation. In the case when group-veloci...
متن کاملSpectral control of high-harmonic generation via drive laser pulse shaping in a wide-diameter capillary.
We experimentally investigate spectral control of high-harmonic generation in a wide-diameter (508 μm) capillary that allows using significantly lower gas pressures coupled with elevated drive laser energies to achieve higher harmonic energies. Using phase shaping to change the linear chirp of the drive laser pulses, we observe wavelength tuning of the high-harmonic output to both larger and sm...
متن کاملEngineerable femtosecond pulse shaping by second-harmonic generation with Fourier synthetic quasi-phase-matching gratings.
We describe a pulse-shaping technique that uses second-harmonic generation with Fourier synthetic quasi-phase-matching gratings. We demonstrate both amplitude and phase tailoring by generating a picosecond squarelike pulse as well as trains of femtosecond pulses with a terahertz-range repetition rate from either a compressed or a chirped pump pulse.
متن کاملTime Frequency Analysis of Higher Harmonic Generation in a Three Color Laser Pulse
high harmonic generation is a useful tool for the generation of short, intense attosecond pulses. In order to simulate high harmonic generation, we performed a numerical solution to the time dependent Schrödinger equation. by considering dipole approximation, we predicted generation of a 53 attosecond pulse. In order to see the time and frequency of emission of attosecond pulse, we exploit...
متن کاملPerformance study of a soft X-ray harmonic generation FEL seeded with an EUV laser pulse
The performance of a free electron laser (FEL) using a low-power extreme ultraviolet (EUV) pulse as an input seed is investigated. The parameters are appropriate for 30 nm seeds produced from high-power Ti:Sapphire pulses using high harmonic generation schemes. It is found that, for reasonable beam parameters, robust FEL performance can be obtained. Both time-independent and time-dependent simu...
