متن کاملBeam width of highly-focused radially-polarized fields.
On the basis of a formal analogy with the irradiance moments, analytical definitions are proposed for the width of both the transverse and the longitudinal component of rotationally-symmetric radially-polarized fields at the focal plane of a high-focusing optical system. The beam width of the whole field is also introduced. The transverse beam size is thus associated with the overall spatial st...
متن کاملDirect Electron Acceleration with Radially Polarized Laser Beams
In the past years, there has been a growing interest in innovative applications of radially polarized laser beams. Among them, the particular field of laser-driven electron acceleration has received much attention. Recent developments in high-power infrared laser sources at the INRS Advanced Laser Light Source (Varennes, Qc, Canada) allowed the experimental observation of a quasi-monoenergetic ...
متن کاملFields of a tightly focused radially polarized laser beam: the truncated series versus the complex-source-point spherical wave representation
In this paper, the fields of a radially polarized fundamental Gaussian beam are derived with a complex-source-point spherical wave approach and then compared and contrasted with those derived recently from a Lax series to the order of ε15, where ε is the diffraction angle. It is shown that the domain of validity of the derived fields is restricted by a discontinuity built into the vector potent...
متن کاملLaser - Driven Electron Acceleration in Infinite Vacuum
I first review basic models for laser-plasma interaction that explain electron acceleration and beam confinement in plasma. Next, I discuss ponderomotive electron acceleration in infinite vacuum, showing that the transverse scattering angle of the accelerated electron may be kept small with a proper choice of parameters. I then analyze the direct (a.k.a. linear) acceleration of an electron in i...
