2. 1. Temporal Aspects of High-Intensity Laser-Matter Interactions

   Author : Johan Mauritsson; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Particle Acceleration; Laser technology; Relativistic Self-Focusing; High-Intensity Lasers; Attosecond Pulses; Pulse Characterization; XUV; High-Order Harmonics; Ultrashort Pulses; Laserteknik; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Atomic and molecular physics; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Mauritsson;

   Abstract : The availability of short-pulse, high-intensity lasers has opened doors to new areas in atomic and plasma physics. The short pulses (a few femtoseconds), that are available today, enable unprecedented temporal measurements, while the high peak power accessible (several terawatts) allows physicists to study the interaction between light and relativistic plasmas.

4. 2. Generation of coherent short-wavelength radiation --- High-order harmonics and x-ray lasers

   Author : Tomas Starczewski; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Atomic and molecular physics; short-wavelength radiation; coherence; high-intensity lasers; high-order harmonics; x-ray lasers; Atom- och molekylärfysik;

   Abstract : The recent availability of short-pulse, high-intensity, compact lasers has opened doors to new and fascinating areas in atomic physics. Using the Lund Terawatt Laser, the interaction of femtosecond, near-infrared and visible laser radiation with matter at intensities in the range 1013--1017 W/cm2 was studied. READ MORE

5. 3. High-Order Harmonics- Characterisation, Optimisation and Applications

   Author : Claire Lyngå; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high-harmonic generation; VUV spectroscopy; high-power lasers; Atomic and molecular physics; radiative lifetimes; XUV spectroscopy; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1999:Lyngå;

   Abstract : Recent advances in laser technology, with the development of extremely short-pulse, high-intensity lasers, have opened doors to new areas in atomic physics. By focusing light from an intense, short-pulse laser into a gas jet, the emission of high-order harmonics of the laser frequency has been studied. READ MORE

6. 4. Optimisation and Application of Intense High-Order Harmonic Pulses

   Author : Lena Roos; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coherent radiation; Optimisation; Multiphoton ionisation; Phase matching; Physics; Fysik; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Laserteknik; Laser technology; High-power lasers; Short pulses; High-order harmonic generation; Short wavelength; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Roos;

   Abstract : The high-order harmonics that are created in the interaction between an intense laser pulse (around 1014 W/cm2) and a gas medium are studied. The high-order harmonic radiation is a relatively new source of coherent radiation in the short wavelength range. READ MORE

7. 5. Optically pumped semiconductor disk lasers for high-power wide wavelength tuning

   Author : Carl Borgentun; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; beam characterization; design; high power; wavelength tuning; Semiconductor laser; gain measurements; vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser; optically pumped semiconductor disk laser;

   Abstract : In this work I present and verify a strategy that makes it possible to change the wavelength, or color, of an external cavity semiconductor laser over a very large range. This is achieved by a careful design and thorough optimization of the active component — the gain element of the laser. READ MORE
