Optical nutation in polymers irradiated by ultrashort laser pulses.

چکیده
The transient behavior of the optical susceptibility of polydiacetylene induced by an ultrafast pump field is investigated. Within a two-level model which includes phonon effects phenomenologically, an analytical expression for the nonlinear susceptibility is obtained. In addition to spectral hole burning, the novel phenomenon of optical nutation is found. Both this nutation and the shape of the hole depend sensitively on the detuning between the exciton frequency and the sum of the pump field and the phonon mode frequencies. The electronic state and phonon-mediated optical Stark blue shift are also found in this model. The results are in qualitative agreement with experiments and indicate that the steady-state approximation is reliable only when the pulse of the pump field is longer than several exciton

Energetic ions and ultrashort X-rays were generated by an intense ultrashort laser interacting with a copper target. Fast ions up to 3 MeV were observed with CR-39 nuclear track detector sheets when 7 TW laser was used. Cu ∼ Cu ions with the energy from 50 keV to 220 keV were detected with a Thomson parabola detector in the case of the laser power of 2.5 TW. Time-resolved X-ray diffraction was ...
