Optics, Lasers, and Quantum Electronics
A possibility of the two-photon excitation of an isomeric state in a nucleus of thorium-229 has been discussed. The fluorescence intensity of the excitation is demonstrated to be identical for the irradiation of nuclei with either monochromatic light or polychromatic radiation consisting of a sequence of short light pulses of the same intensity. The two-photon excitation of Th3+ ion in an elect...
متن کاملOptics and Lasers in Engineering
A dual-wavelength image-plane digital holography, combined with a windowed Fourier analysis, is presented for dynamic measurement of a vibrating object. In order to expand the range of the velocity measurement, the object is simultaneously illuminated by two lasers with different wavelengths. A sequence of digital holograms of a vibrating object is captured by a CCD camera and two wrapped phase...
متن کاملFiber-lasers for ultrafast optics
The current status of a fiber-based ultrafast technology is reviewed. Pulse generation techniques capable of producing femtosecond pulses are discussed. Here we describe passive and active–passive mode locking techniques as well as linear and nonlinear fiber amplifiers. Thirtyfemtosecond pulses may be generated directly from fiber oscillators or by implementing pulse compression techniques. The...
متن کاملDevelopments in Relativistic Nonlinear Optics
We report recent results of experiments and simulations in the regime of peak laser intensities above 10 W/cm, including the following topics: (1) electron and proton acceleration to energies in excess of 10 MeV in well collimated beams; (2) use of laser chirp to control the growth of plasma waves and acceleration of electrons by the Raman instability; (3) all optical injection and acceleration...
متن کاملNonlinear optics in relativistic plasmas.
We review our recent work on the various nonlinear optical processes that occur as an intense laser propagates through a relativistic plasma. These include the experimental observations of electron acceleration driven by laser-wakefield generation, relativistic self-focusing, waveguide formation and laser self-channeling.
