Laser Plasma Accelerators [PDF]
This review article highlights the tremendous evolution of the research on laser plasma accelerators which has, in record time, led to the production of high quality electron beams at the GeV level, using compact laser systems. I will describe the path we followed to explore different injection schemes and I will present the most significant ...

Unresonant interaction of laser beams with microdroplets [PDF]
The interaction of distilled water droplets (volumes of 3-4 µl) with pulsed laser beams emitted at 532 nm is described. At 532 nm the distilled water absorption is very low and the interaction of a water droplet with the laser radiation is dominated by ...

Lead-Free Perovskite Thin Films for Gas Sensing through Surface Acoustic Wave Device Detection
Thin film technology shows great promise in fabricating electronic devices such as gas sensors. Here, we report the fabrication of surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors based on thin films of (1 − x) Ba(Ti0.8Zr0.2)O3−x(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BCTZ50, x = 50) and ...

Implementation of Ag/ SiO2 nanofilms for metamaterial engineering
Low dimensions of the nanostructured thin films are essential in applications of miniaturized optical systems. Noble metal thin films of different thicknesses (4–10 nm) were obtained by radio frequency magnetron sputtering (rfMS) with controlled ...

Laser guiding for GeV laser–plasma accelerators [PDF]
Guiding of relativistically intense laser beams in preformed plasma channels is discussed for development of GeV-class laser accelerators. Experiments using a channel guided laser wakefield accelerator at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) have demonstrated that near mono-energetic 100 MeV-class electron beams can be produced with a 10 TW ...

Optical spectrum behaviour of a coupled laser system under chaotic synchronization conditions [PDF]
Synchronization characteristics of two bidirectionally coupled semiconductor lasers, one operating in a chaotic regime with low-frequency fluctuations and the other with free laser beam emission, were experimentally investigated.

Anticorrelation between Ion Acceleration and Nonlinear Coherent Structures from Laser-Underdense Plasma Interaction [PDF]
In laser-plasma experiments, we observed that ion acceleration from the Coulomb explosion of the plasma channel bored by the laser, is prevented when multiple plasma instabilities such as filamentation and hosing, and nonlinear coherent structures ...
