Early-Time Reshaping of Laser-Induced Plasma Profiles
Ivan Ostrovsky, Gilad Hurvitz, Soumitra Hazra +1
Laser-induced plasmas are primarily characterized by their temporal density decay. Using time-resolved transverse optical diffractometry, we reveal their concurrent spatial evoluti…
Direct Time-Domain Observation of l-Doubling via Centrifugal-Distortion Pre-compensation
Inbar Sternbach, Kfir Rutman Moshe, Amit Beer +2
We demonstrate direct time-domain observation of l-doubling contributions in molecular rotational dynamics using shaped femtosecond laser pulses. By imposing a tailored spectral ph…
Tomographic diffractometry of laser-induced plasma formations
Ivan Ostrovsky, Gilad Hurvitz, Eli Bograd +3
A sensitive optical diffractometry method is developed and utilized for advanced tomography of laser-induced air plasma formations. Using transverse diffractometry and Supergaussia…
Enhanced transmission at the zeroth-order mode of a terahertz Fabry-Perot cavity
Soumitra Hazra, Ran Damari, Adina Golombek +3
A planar Fabry-Perot cavity with inter-mirror spacing significantly shorter than the probing wavelength is explored for its "zero-order mode" terahertz transmission. The enhanced t…
