Journal ArticleDOI
Optical properties of high‐quality InGaAs/InAlAs multiple quantum wells
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the narrowest halfwidth at half-maximum photoluminescence linewidth of 2.8 meV, in 40-period lattice matched In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As multiple quantum wells, grown by molecular beam epitaxy with growth interruption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolated attosecond pulses generated by relativistic effects in a wavelength-cubed focal volume
TL;DR: With particle-in-cell simulations, it is found that single 200-as pulses could be produced efficiently in a lambda3 laser pulse reflection by means of deflection and phase compression caused by the coherent motion of the plasma electrons that emit these pulses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of the intermediate state in nonequilibrium superconductors
TL;DR: Experimental measurements of the voltage response of current-biased superconducting thin films excited by 30-ps-FWHM (full width at half-maximum) pulsed laser radiation provide direct evidence for the existence of a nonstationary intermediate state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variable Ultrafast Photographic Shutter
TL;DR: In this article, an ultrafast shutter based on the saturable properties of polymethine cyanide dyes was proposed, with a variable shutter speed of 10-40 psec and more.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular orientational relaxation times in liquids
Gerard Mourou,M.M. Malley +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a mode-locked Nd:glass laser to observe the kinetics of the optical Kerr effect in several liquids and determined the molecular orientational relaxation times for carbon disulfide, bromobenzene, nitrobenzene, toluene, iodomethane and mixtures of carbon tetrachloride.
