Amplification of intense light fields by nearly free electrons
Mary Matthews, Felipe Morales, Alexander Patas +10
Light can be used to modify and control properties of media, as in the case of electromagnetically induced transparency or, more recently, for the generation of slow light or brigh…

Modifications of filament spectra by shaped octave-spanning laser pulses
Alexander Patas, Mary Matthews, Sylvain Hermelin +4
In this paper we examine the spectral changes in a white light laser filament due to different pulse shapes generated by a pulse shaping setup. We particularly explore how the prop…

Maximizing energy deposition by shaping few-cycle laser pulses
Julien Gateau, Alexander Patas, Mary Matthews +4
We experimentally investigate the impact of pulse shape on the dynamics of laser-generated plasma in rare gases. Fast-rising triangular pulses with a slower decay lead to early ion…
