Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma mirrors for ultrahigh-intensity optics
Cédric Thaury,Fabien Quéré,J. P. Geindre,Anna Lévy,T. Ceccotti,P. Monot,M. Bougeard,F. Réau,Pascal D'Oliveira,Patrick Audebert,Robin Marjoribanks,Ph. Martin +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the temporal contrast of femtosecond (F2F) laser reflectors was investigated and it was shown that high-order harmonics of the laser frequency can be generated through two distinct mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton acceleration with high-intensity ultrahigh-contrast laser pulses.
T. Ceccotti,Anna Lévy,H. Popescu,F. Réau,Pascal D'Oliveira,P. Monot,J. P. Geindre,Erik Lefebvre,Ph. Martin +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the maximum proton energies are proportional to the p component of the laser electric field only and not to the ponderomotive force and that the characteristics of the proton beams originating from both target sides are almost identical.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double plasma mirror for ultrahigh temporal contrast ultraintense laser pulses
Anna Lévy,T. Ceccotti,Pascal D'Oliveira,F. Réau,M. Perdrix,Fabien Quéré,P. Monot,M. Bougeard,Hervé Lagadec,Philippe Martin,Jean-Paul Geindre,Patrick Audebert +11 more
TL;DR: A very efficient optical device that employs the plasma mirror technique to increase the contrast of high-power laser systems when the pulse is reflected on two consecutive plasma mirrors is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence of Resonant Surface-Wave Excitation in the Relativistic Regime through Measurements of Proton Acceleration from Grating Targets
T. Ceccotti,V. Floquet,Andrea Sgattoni,A. Bigongiari,Ondrej Klimo,M. Raynaud,Caterina Riconda,Anne Héron,F. Baffigi,Luca Labate,Leonida A. Gizzi,L. Vassura,Julien Fuchs,Matteo Passoni,M. Květon,F.

TL;DR: The interaction of laser pulses with thin grating targets, having a periodic groove at the irradiated surface, is experimentally investigated and an enhanced laser-target coupling is demonstrated for the first time in the relativistic regime of ultrahigh intensity >10(19) W/cm(2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Optically controlled solid-density transient plasma gratings.
S. Monchocé,Subhendu Kahaly,A. Leblanc,Laurent Videau,P. Combis,F. Réau,David Garzella,Pascal D'Oliveira,Ph. Martin,Fabien Quéré +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown how sinusoidal plasma gratings of adjustable spatial periodicity and depth can be used as a "spatial ruler" to determine the source size of the high-order harmonic beams produced at the surface of an overdense plasma.
