Designer pulsed beams for enhanced space-time focusing.

چکیده
We have demonstrated analytically and numerically that at least 10-100-fold enhancements in intensities for similar input energies can be achieved in the focal region of a thin dielectric lens by the use of pulsed beams specifically designed for that purpose.

62 LLE Review, Volume 78 Pulsed laser beams with two-dimensional smoothing by spectral dispersion (2-D SSD), used in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), improve the on-target uniformity on the OMEGA laser system;1–4 however, 2-D SSD is highly susceptible to significant amplitude modulation (AM) during its generation and propagation.5–8 In addition to on-target uniformity, the smoothness of the p...
متن کاملBody-of-revolution finite-difference time-domain modeling of space-time focusing by a three-dimensional lens
Received June 21, 1993; revised manuscript received November 15, 1993; accepted November 18, 1993 We introduce a body-of-revolution finite-difference time-domain simulation capability that can be applied to rotationally symmetric linear-optics problems. This simulator allows us to reduce a computationally intractable, three-dimensional problem to a numerically solvable two-dimensional one. It i...
متن کاملTime-Domain Radiation From Large Two-Dimensional Apertures via Narrow-Waisted Gaussian Beams
This paper deals with the short-pulse radiation of three-dimensional (3-D) vector electromagnetic fields from arbitrarily polarized large two-dimensional (2-D) truncated aperture distributions, which are parameterized in terms of narrow-waisted ray-like pulsed Gaussian basis beams centered on a discretized Gabor lattice in a four-dimensional (4-D) configuration-spectrum phase space. The study e...
متن کاملIon-beam sculpting time scales.
A study of ion sculpting dynamics in SiO2 and SiN using periodically pulsed ion beams reveals material transport that depends strongly on the time structure of the pulsed beams. It is found that significant nanoscale matter transport can occur over second long time scales after the ion beam has been extinguished. A simple phenomenological model described the dynamics of ion beam sculpting in te...
متن کاملDiffraction-free pulsed optical beams via space-time correlations.
Diffraction places a fundamental limitation on the distance an optical beam propagates before its size increases and spatial details blur. We show here that imposing a judicious correlation between spatial and spectral degrees of freedom of a pulsed beam can render its transverse spatial profile independent of location along the propagation axis, thereby arresting the spread of the time-average...
