Directionality of terahertz emission from photoinduced gas plasmas.
Forward and backward terahertz emission by ionizing two-color laser pulses in gas is investigated by means of a simple semianalytical model based on Jefimenko's equations and rigorous Maxwell simulations in one and two dimensions. We find the emission in the backward direction has a much smaller spectral bandwidth than in the forward direction and explain this by interference effects. Forward t...
متن کاملTerahertz-radiation-enhanced emission of fluorescence from gas plasma.
We report the study of femtosecond laser-induced air plasma fluorescence under the illumination of terahertz (THz) pulses. Semiclassical modeling and experimental verification indicate that time-resolved THz radiation-enhanced emission of fluorescence is dominated by the electron kinetics and the electron-impact excitation of gas molecules or ions. We demonstrate that the temporal waveform of t...
متن کاملEfficient Terahertz Pulse Generation in Laser-Induced Gas Plasmas
With state-of-the-art amplifier laser systems one easily reaches pulse energies sufficient to ionize atoms and molecules in focused beams. If this is done in a gaseous medium at ambient pressure (e.g., in air), a plasma with a length of a few hundred μm and a diameter of up to 100 μm can be produced by a 1 kHz 150 fs Ti:sapphire laser system with laser pulse energies in the 500 μJ regime. The p...
متن کاملTerahertz emission from Ga1−xInxSb
We report an experimental study on terahertz THz emission from Ga1−xInxSb with 0 x 1. THz emission is excited by femtosecond near-infrared laser pulses. For this material system THz emission is maximized for an In mole fraction x 0.5. The maximum in THz emission occurs as a result of carrier compensation NA NB for this specific material composition. The THz emission from n-type InSb is twice as...
متن کاملPhoton Emission from Ultrarelativistic Plasmas
The emission rate of photons from a hot, weakly coupled ultrarelativistic plasma is analyzed. Leading-log results, reflecting the sensitivity of the emission rate to scattering events with momentum transfers from gT to T , have previously been obtained. But a complete leading-order treatment requires including collinearly enhanced, inelastic processes such as bremsstrahlung. These inelastic pro...
