Methods of generating carrier-envelope-phase stabilized, intense, few-cycle laser pulses
(2015-02-12)
Ultrafast laser pulses have become an integral part of the toolbox of countless laboratories doing physics, chemistry, and biological research. The work presented here is motivated by a section in the ever-growing, interdisciplinary research towards understanding the fundamental workings of light-matter interactions. Specifically, attosecond pulses can be useful tools to obtain the desired insight. However access to, and the utility of, such pulses is dependent on the generation of intense, few-cycle, carrier-envelope-phase ...

Femtosecond imaging-mode laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
(2004-08-31)
Many nonlinear optical microscopy techniques based on the high-intensity nonlinear phenomena were developed recent years. A new technique based on the minimal-invasive in-situ analysis of the specific bound elements in biological samples is described in the present work. The imaging-mode Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is proposed as a combination of LIBS, femtosecond laser material processing and microscopy. The Calcium distribution in the peripheral cell wall of the sunflower seedling (Helianthus Annuus ...

Femtosecond probing of sodium cluster ion Na_n ^+ fragmentation
(1992)
We report on the first femtosecond time-resolved experiments in cluster physics. The photofragmentation
dynamics of small sodium cluster ions Na_n ^+ have been studied with pump-probe techniques. Ultrashort
laser pulses of 60-fs duration are employed to photoionize the sodium clusters and to probe the
photofragments. We find that the ejection of neutral dimer Na_2 and, observed for the first time, neutral
trimer Na_3 photofragments occur on ultrashort time scales of 2.5 and 0.4 ps, respectively. This and the
absence ...

Femtosecond spectroscopy of molecular autoionization and fragmentation
(1990)
Femtosecond laser pulses are applied to the study of the dynamics and the pathways of multiphoton-induced ionization, autoionization, and fragmentation of Na_2 in molecular-beam experiments. In particular,
we report on first results obtained studying electronic autoionization (leading to Na_2{^+} + {e ^-}) and
autoionization-induced fragmentation (leading to Na{^+} + Na + {e ^-}) of a bound doubly excited molecular state. The final continuum states are analyzed by photoelectron spectroscopy and by measuring the ...
