Plasma mirrors as a path to the Schwinger limit
L. Chopineau, A. Denoeud, A. Leblanc +4
Reaching light intensities above W/cm and up to the Schwinger limit ( W/cm) would enable testing decades-old fundamental predictions of Quantum Elect…
Spatio-temporal characterization of ultrashort laser beams: a tutorial
Spencer W. Jolly, Olivier Gobert, Fabien Quéré
The temporal characterization of ultrafast laser pulses has become a cornerstone capability of ultrafast optics laboratories and is routine both for optimizing laser pulse duration…
Interaction of ultraintense radially-polarized laser pulses with plasma mirrors
N. Zaïm, D. Guénot, L. Chopineau +5
We present experimental results of vacuum laser acceleration (VLA) of electrons using radially polarized laser pulses interacting with a plasma mirror. Tightly focused radially pol…
How to generate intense isolated attosecond pulses from relativistic plasma mirrors?
H. Kallala, F. Quéré, H. Vincenti
Doppler harmonic generation of a high-power laser on a relativistic plasma mirror is a promising path to produce bright attosecond light bursts. Yet, a major challenge has been to…
Spatio-temporal structure of a Petawatt femtosecond laser beam
Antoine Jeandet, Antonin Borot, Kei Nakamura +6
The development of optical metrology suited to ultrafast lasers has played a key role in the progress of these light sources in the last few decades. Measurement techniques providi…
