  2. 1. Propagation of some coherent and partially coherent laser beams

    Author : Yangjian Cai; Sailing He; Franco Gori; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; : dark hollow beam; elliptical Gaussian beam; flat-topped beam; twisted anisotropic Gaussian Schell-model; partial coherent; propagation; paraxial optical system; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we investigate the propagation of some coherent and partially coherent laser beams, including a dark hollow beam (DHB), an elliptical Gaussian beam (EGB), a flat-topped beam and a twisted anisotropic Gaussian Schell-model (TAGSM) beam, through a paraxial optical system or a turbulent atmosphere. Several theoretical models are proposed to describe a DHB of circular or non-circular symmetry. READ MORE

  4. 2. Laser-driven beams of fast ions, relativistic electrons and coherent x-ray photons

    Author : Olle Lundh; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasma Acceleration of Electrons and Ions; Advanced Accelerator Concepts; X-ray Lasers; Intense Beams and Radiation Sources; Intense Laser-Plasma Interactions;

    Abstract : This thesis presents experimental results on the development and optimization of novel and highly compact sources of beams of fast ions, relativistic electrons and coherent x-rays, driven by intense laser-plasma interactions. The rapid development of high-power, short-pulse laser systems have made available peak powers reaching the petawatt regime and focused intensities reaching 10^21 W/cm2. READ MORE

  5. 3. Studies on high brightness electron beams for short pulses and free electron laser

    Author : Sara Thorin; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bunch compression; sub-ps pulses; X-rays; High brightness electron beam; free electron laser; electron accelerator; collective effects.;

    Abstract : Accelerator based lightsources are one of the most powerful tools today for producing high intensity radiation at very short wavelengths. While synchrotron storage rings provide a high average brilliance in a wide wavelength range, the next generation of lightsources aim towards producing ultra-short pulses in the X-ray regime.

  6. 4. Grating Based Lasers for Photonic Integration and Surface Emission

    Author : Peter Modh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; integrated optics; surface-emitting lasers; laser resonators; optical planar waveguide couplers; unstable-resonator lasers; semiconductor lasers;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the fabrication and characterization of grating-based integration-compatible semiconductor lasers. Waveguide gratings provide feedback for the laser resonators, and are used to diffract the laser output out of the waveguide for surface-emission. READ MORE

  7. 5. Toward Creating a Coherent, Next-Generation Light Source with special emphasis on nonlinear harmonic generation in single-pass, high-gain free-electron lasers
