Proceedings ArticleDOI
Terahertz pulse investigation of Paleolithic wall etchings
J. Bianca Jackson,Gillian C. Walker,John Roberts,Alistair Pike,Vincent Detalle,David Giovannacci,Gerard Mourou,Michel Menu,John W. Bowen +8 more
TL;DR: The authors examined flow rock-covered Paleoloithic cave art using time-domain terahertz reflectometry, and found that the art was composed of a series of geometric patterns.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
High-efficiency frequency doubling of ultra-intense Nd:glass laser pulses
TL;DR: In this article, an efficient second harmonic conversion (70 - 80%) using Type II and Type I crystals is demonstrated with 400-fs, 1.053-micrometers laser pulses at intensities up to several hundreds of GW/cm2.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Generation Of White Light At 1 Khz
TL;DR: In this article, a new dye laser and a c.w.-pumped regenerative amplifier system were developed for generating white light continuum at a repetition rate higher than 1 KHz, which was shown to improve the performance of the generator.
Proceedings Article
Tunable high-power femtosecond pulses from Ti:Al 2 O 3 and alexandrite
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a unique high power, all solid-state femtosecond source that is tunable, demonstrates high efficiency, and has a very low background.
