Computational Methods of Wave Propagation for Semiclassical Models of High Harmonic Generation in Bulk Solids

Ava N. Hejazi, Nicholas Karpowicz, Gregory D. Scholes +1

We present a theoretical framework for self consistent treatment of nonlinear light-matter interactions in the ultra-fast strong-field regime based on numerical solution of Maxwell…

High-energy transient gas pinholes via saturated absorption

Ke Ou, Victor M. Perez-Ramirez, Sida Cao +6

This letter presents a spatial filter based on saturated absorption in gas as a replacement for the solid pinhole in a lens-pinhole-lens filtering system. We show that an ultraviol…

Greater than five-order-of-magnitude post-compression temporal contrast improvement with an ionization plasma grating

Matthew R. Edwards, Nicholas M. Fasano, Andreas M. Giakas +7

High-intensity lasers require suppression of prepulses and other non-ideal temporal structure to avoid target disruption before the arrival of the main pulse. To address this, we d…

Laser Amplification in Strongly-Magnetized Plasma

Matthew R. Edwards, Yuan Shi, Julia M. Mikhailova +1

We consider backscattering of laser pulses in strongly-magnetized plasma mediated by kinetic magnetohydrodynamic waves. Magnetized low-frequency scattering, which can occur when th…

X-Ray Amplification by Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

Matthew R. Edwards, Julia M. Mikhailova, Nathaniel J. Fisch

Plasma-based parametric amplification using stimulated Brillouin scattering offers a route to coherent x-ray pulses orders-of-magnitude more intense than those of the brightest ava…

Short-Pulse Amplification by Strongly-Coupled Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

Matthew R. Edwards, Qing Jia, Julia M. Mikhailova +1

We examine the feasibility of strongly-coupled stimulated Brillouin scattering as a mechanism for the plasma-based amplification of sub-picosecond pulses. In particular, we use flu…
