Proceedings ArticleDOI
Amplification of 100-fs Pulses in Alexandrite Using Chirped Pulse Techniques
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a sequence of intracavity prisms in conjunction with diffraction gratings to compensate for both linear and quadratic contributions to the dispersion from the amplifier.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Picosecond electrooptic characterization of the permeable base transistor
Douglas R. Dykaar,Gerard Mourou,Mark A. Hollis,B. J. Clifton,Kirby B. Nichols,G. O. Bozler,R. A. Murphy +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the colliding pulse mode-locked (CPM) laser to measure electrical signals with rise times as fast as a few hundred femtoseconds.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
High harmonic generation from solid targets at high repetition rate
TL;DR: In this paper, up to the 15th order harmonics are produced from solid targets using 3 mJ, 30 fs pulses focused to a spot size of 17 µm and 3×1018 W/cm2 combined conversion efficiency to the highest harmonics is > 10−5
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Progress towards a LWFA-based X-ray machine for plant phase-contrast X-ray imaging
Sylvain Fourmaux,Philippe Lassonde,S. Payeur,U. Chaulagain,Sergey Mironov,Vladislav Ginzburg,Efim A. Khazanov,Emil Hallin,Gerard Mourou,Jean-Claude Kieffer +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the INRS program on intense X-ray sources based on laser wake-field acceleration for high throughput plant imaging is presented, where key technical points to achieve the best compromise between complexity and performance are discussed.
