Focused fields of ultrashort radially-polarized laser pulses having low-order spatio-temporal couplings
Spencer W. Jolly
We present a detailed study of the fields and propagation characteristics around the focus of ultrashort radially-polarized laser beams (RPLBs) having low-order spatio-temporal cou…
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…
On the importance of frequency-dependent beam parameters for vacuum acceleration with few-cycle radially-polarized laser beams
Spencer W. Jolly
Tightly-focused, ultrashort radially-polarized laser beams have a large longitudinal field, which provides a strong motivation for direct particle acceleration and manipulation in…
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…
Influence of longitudinal chromatism on vacuum acceleration by intense radially polarized laser beams
Spencer W. Jolly
We report with single particle simulations that longitudinal chromatism, a commonly occuring spatio-temporal coupling in ultrashort laser pulses, can have a significant influence i…
Spectral Phase Control of Interfering Chirped Pulses for High-Energy Narrowband Terahertz Generation
Spencer W. Jolly, Nicholas H. Matlis, Frederike Ahr +7
Highly-efficient optical generation of narrowband terahertz (THz) radiation enables unexplored technologies and sciences from compact electron acceleration to charge manipulation i…
