| 1 | ARCTURUS laser: a versatile high-contrast,high-power multi-beam laser system显示文摘With the latest configuration,the Ti:Sa laser system ARCTURUS(Düsseldorf University,Germany)operates with a double-chirped pulse amplification(CPA)architecture delivering pulses with an energy of 7 J before compression in each of the two high-power beams.By the implementation of a plasma mirror system,the intrinsic laser contrast is enhanced up to 10^-12 on a time scale of hundreds of picoseconds,before the main peak.The laser system has been used in various configurations for advanced experiments and different studies have been carried out employing the high-power laser beams as a single,high-intensity interaction beam(I≈1020 W/cm^2),in dual-and multi-beam configurations or in a pump–probe arrangement. | M.Cerchez R.Prasad B.Aurand A.L.Giesecke S.Spickermann S.Brauckmann E.Aktan M.Swantusch M.Toncian T.Toncian O.Willi | 2019 | High Power Laser Science and Engineering2019，7，3： | 1 |
| 2 | Highly-collimated, high-charge and broadband MeV electron beams produced by magnetizing solids irradiated by high-intensity lasers显示文摘Laser irradiation of solid targets can drive short and high-charge relativistic electron bunches over micron-scale acceleration gradients.However,for a long time,this technique was not considered a viable means of electron acceleration due to the large intrinsic divergence(∼50°half-angle)of the electrons.Recently,a reduction in this divergence to 10°–20°half-angle has been obtained,using plasma-based magnetic fields or very high contrast laser pulses to extract the electrons into the vacuum.Here we show that we can further improve the electron beam collimation,down to∼1.5°half-angle,of a high-charge(6 nC)beam,and in a highly reproducible manner,while using standard stand-alone 100 TW-class laser pulses.This is obtained by embedding the laser-target interaction in an external,large-scale(cm),homogeneous,extremely stable,and high-strength(20 T)magnetic field that is independent of the laser.With upcoming multi-PW,high repetition-rate lasers,this technique opens the door to achieving even higher charges(>100 nC). | S.Bolaños J.Beard G.Revet S.N.Chen S.Pikuz E.Filippov M.Safronova M.Cerchez O.Willi M.Starodubtsev J.Fuchs | 2019 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2019，4，4： | 0 |
| 3 | Fabrication of micrometre-sized periodic gratings in free-standing metallic foils for laser-plasma experiments显示文摘Engineered targets are expected to play a key role in future high-power laser experiments calling for joined, extensive knowledge in materials properties, engineering techniques and plasma physics. In this work, we propose a novel patterning procedure of self-supported 10 μm thick Au and Cu foils for obtaining micrometre-sized periodic gratings as targets for high-power laser applications. Accessible techniques were considered, by using cold rolling, electronbeam lithography and the Ar-ion milling process. The developed patterning procedure allows efficient control of the grating and foil surface on large area. Targets consisting of patterned regions of 450 μm × 450 μm, with 2 μm periodic gratings, were prepared on 25 mm × 25 mm Au and Cu free-standing foils, and preliminary investigations of the microtargets interacting with an ultrashort, relativistic laser pulse were performed. These test experiments demonstrated that,in certain conditions, the micro-gratings show enhanced laser energy absorption and higher efficiency in accelerating charge particle beams compared with planar thin foils of similar thickness. | C.C.Gheorghiu M.Cerchez E.Aktan R.Prasad F.Yilmaz N.Yilmaz D.Popa O.Willi V.Leca | 2022 | High Power Laser Science and Engineering2022，10，1： | 0 |
| 4 | Relativistic electron acceleration by surface plasma waves excited with high intensity laser pulses显示文摘The process of high energy electron acceleration along the surface of grating targets(GTs)that were irradiated by a relativistic,high-contrast laser pulse at an intensity I=2.5×10^20 W/cm^2 was studied.Our experimental results demonstrate that for a GT with a periodicity twice the laser wavelength,the surface electron flux is more intense for a laser incidence angle that is larger compared to the resonance angle predicted by the linear model.An electron beam with a peak charge of∼2.7 nC/sr,for electrons with energies>1.5 MeV,was measured.Numerical simulations carried out with parameters similar to the experimental conditions also show an enhanced electron flux at higher incidence angles depending on the preplasma scale length.A theoretical model that includes ponderomotive effects with more realistic initial preplasma conditions suggests that the laser-driven intensity and preformed plasma scale length are important for the acceleration process.The predictions closely match the experimental and computational results. | X.M.Zhu R.Prasad M.Swantusch B.Aur A.A.Andreev O.Willi M.Cerchez | 2020 | High Power Laser Science and Engineering2020，8，2： | 0 |
