Suitability and robustness of triangular nanostructured targets for proton acceleration
Manuel Blanco, M. T. Flores-Arias, Marija Vranic
Ion acceleration in the MeV range can be routinely achieved with table-top laser technology. One of the current challenges is to improve the energy coupling from the laser to the p…
Ultraintense femtosecond magnetic nanoprobes induced by azimuthally polarized laser beams
Manuel Blanco, Ferran Cambronero, María Teresa Flores-Arias +3
We report a novel scheme to generate laser-induced, ultrafast, intense (Tesla scale), spatially isolated, magnetic fields. Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations show that…
Controlling the ellipticity of attosecond pulses produced by laser irradiation of overdense plasmas
M. Blanco, M. T. Flores-Arias, A. Gonoskov
The interaction of high-intensity laser pulses and solid targets provides a promising way to create compact, tunable and bright XUV attosecond sources that can become a unique tool…
Table-top laser-based proton acceleration in nanostructured targets
M. Blanco, M. T. Flores-Arias, C. Ruiz +1
The interaction of ultrashort, high intensity laser pulses with thin foil targets leads to ion acceleration on the target rear surface. To make this ion source useful for applicati…
Phase matching effects in high harmonic generation at the nanometer scale
Manuel Blanco, Carlos Hernández-García, Alexis Chacón +3
Plasmon resonances are known to amplify the electromagnetic fields near metallic nanostructures. Therefore, they are considered to provide a promising scheme to generate extreme-ul…
