چکیده

We demonstrate energy exchange between two filament-forming femtosecond laser beams in liquid methanol. Our results are consistent with those of previous works documenting coupling between filaments in air; in addition, we identify an unreported phenomenon in which the direction of energy exchange oscillates at increments in the relative pulse delay equal to an optical period (2.6 fs). Energy transfer from one filament to another may be used in remote sensing and spectroscopic applications utilizing femtosecond laser filaments in water and air.

Characterization and Corrosion Behavior of Hydroxyapatite- Coated Titanium Substrates Prepared Through Laser Induced Liquid Deposition Technique

Titanium and titanium alloys are often used in orthopedic surgery and dentistry because of their especial characteristics such as biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance. However, their bio- inertness is the most serious drawback for biomedical applications. Therefore, a bioactive coating like hydroxyapatite (HA) is coated on their surface. In this regard, in the prese...

Photoionization of methanol dimer using a tunable vacuum ultraviolet laser

Methanol dimer (CD3OH)2 ion–molecule reaction is initialized by VUV ~vacuum ultraviolet! laser photoionization. The proton and deuteron transfers are the dominant reactions. The relative probabilities of deuteron transfer from the methyl group and proton from the hydroxyl group were measured as a function of VUV photon energy between 10.91 to 10.49 eV. According to those results, the probabilit...

Heat Transfer in Semitransparent Medium Caused by Laser Pulse

In this paper, the combination of conduction with radiation into a semitransparent medium which includes absorption, emission and scattering has been investigated. In order to Study the conduction in medium, the Non-Fourier heat conduction has been applied. In this model there is a time delay between heat flux and temperature gradient. Also, in contrast with Fourier heat conduction, the speed o...
