Order-dependent structure of high harmonic wavefronts.
The physics of high harmonics has led to the generation of attosecond pulses and to trains of attosecond pulses. Measurements that confirm the pulse duration are all performed in the far field. All pulse duration measurements tacitly assume that both the beam's wavefront and intensity profile are independent of frequency. However, if one or both are frequency dependent, then the retrieved pulse...
متن کاملLateral shearing interferometry of high-harmonic wavefronts.
We present a technique for frequency-resolved wavefront characterization of high harmonics based on lateral shearing interferometry. Tilted replicas of the driving laser pulse are produced by a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, producing separate focii in the target. The interference of the resulting harmonics on a flat-field extreme ultraviolet spectrometer yields the spatial phase derivative. A co...
متن کاملHigh-Order Harmonic Spectroscopy of Molecular Structure and Dynamics
Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. The recent developments of high repetition rate and high average power ultrafast laser open the door for probing molecular structure and dynamics with intense laser fields. In this regi...
متن کاملIntensity-dependent atomic-phase effects in high-order harmonic generation.
The far-field angular distributions of high-order harmonics of a 1054-nm laser, with orders ranging from the lower teens to the upper thirties, have been measured in thin, low-density Ar, Kr, and Xe targets. The 1.25times-diffraction-limited, 1.4-ps-duration, Gaussian laser pulses were focused to intensities ranging from 3 X 10' to 3 X 10' W/cm, using f/70 optics. A gas target localized the gas...
متن کاملSize-dependent high-order harmonic generation in rare-gas clusters.
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is investigated in rare-gas clusters as a function of the cluster size using 0.8 and 1.3 μm femtosecond lasers. A characteristic, species-dependent knee structure in the single particle response is observed. A 1D recollision model qualitatively reproduces this behavior and associates it to the degree of delocalization of the initial wave function. Small clu...
