High harmonic generation strongly depends on the driving laser field and as a result the harmonics have similar temporal and spatial coherence properties. [10] High harmonics are often generated with pulse durations shorter than that of the driving laser. [11] This is due to the nonlinearity of the generation process, phase matching and ...
High harmonic generation in krypton.This technology is one of the most used techniques to generate attosecond bursts of light. Attosecond physics, also known as attophysics, or more generally attosecond science, is a branch of physics that deals with light-matter interaction phenomena wherein attosecond (10 −18 s) photon pulses are used to unravel dynamical processes in matter with ...
Similarly, in Indium, there exists a strong transition 4d 10 5s 2 → 4d 9 5s 2 5p at 19.92 eV with a high gf value of 1.11. [10] The energy of this transition corresponds to 13th harmonic with 800 nm excitation wavelength. This enhancement in a particular harmonic order is most commonly known as Resonant High Harmonic Generation (RH).
A frequency comb or spectral comb is a spectrum made of discrete and regularly spaced spectral lines.In optics, a frequency comb can be generated by certain laser sources.. A number of mechanisms exist for obtaining an optical frequency comb, including periodic modulation (in amplitude and/or phase) of a continuous-wave laser, four-wave mixing in nonlinear media, or stabilization of the pulse ...
If a well-known reference pulse is available, then it may be used as a gating pulse instead of a copy of the unknown pulse. This is referred to as cross-correlation FROG or XFROG. In addition, other non-linear effects besides second harmonic generation may be used, such as third harmonic generation (THG) or polarization gating (PG).
A high intensity ultrashort pulse will generate an array of harmonics in the medium; a particular harmonic of interest is then selected with a monochromator. This technique has been used to produce ultrashort pulses in the extreme ultraviolet and soft-X-ray regimes from near infrared Ti-sapphire laser pulses.
N-th harmonic generation. Harmonic generation (HG, also called multiple harmonic generation) is a nonlinear optical process in which photons with the same frequency interact with a nonlinear material, are "combined", and generate a new photon with times the energy of the initial photons (equivalently, times the frequency and the wavelength divided by ).
Hyper–Rayleigh scattering optical activity (/ ˈ r eɪ l i / RAY-lee), a form of chiroptical harmonic scattering, is a nonlinear optical physical effect whereby chiral scatterers (such as nanoparticles or molecules) convert light (or other electromagnetic radiation) to higher frequencies via harmonic generation processes, in a way that the ...
