Electric currents circulating between charged clouds and the earth surface during lightning discharges are responsible for considerable damages and casualties. It is therefore impo…
HV discharges triggered by dual- and triple-frequency laser filaments
Thomas Produit, Pierre Walch, Guillaume Schimmel +10
We study the use of frequency upconversion schemes of near-IR picosecond laser pulses and compare their ability to guide and trigger electric discharges through filamentation in ai…
Free space laser telecommunication through fog
Guillaume Schimmel, Thomas Produit, Denis Mongin +2
Atmospheric clearness is a key issue for free space optical communications (FSO). We present the first active method to achieve FSO through clouds and fog, using ultrashort high in…
