Generation of elliptically polarized nitrogen-ion laser fields using two-color femtosecond laser pulses
Ziting Li, Bin Zeng, Wei Chu +6
We experimentally investigate generation of molecular nitrogen-ion lasers with two femtosecond laser pulses at different wavelengths. The first pulse serves as the pump which ioniz…
Time-resolved shadowgraphs of transient plasma induced by spatiotemporally focused femtosecond laser pulses in fused silica glass
Zhaohui Wang, Bin Zeng, Guihua Li +7
We report on experimental observations of formation and evolution of transient plasma produced in fused silica glass with spatiotemporally focused (STF) femtosecond laser pulses us…
Non-perturbative generation of above-threshold harmonics from pre-excited argon atoms in intense mid-infrared laser fields
Guihua Li, Hongqiang Xie, Ziting Li +4
We experimentally investigate the generation of above-threshold harmonics completely from argon atoms on an excited state using mid-infrared femtosecond laser pulses. The highly no…
Population Redistribution among Multiple Electronic States of Molecular Nitrogen Ions in Strong Laser Fields
Jinping Yao, Shicheng Jiang, Wei Chu +11
We carry out a combined theoretical and experimental investigation on the population distributions in the ground and excited states of tunnel ionized N2 molecules at various driver…
Spatiotemporal focusing does not always improve axial intensity localization
Ya Cheng, Hongqiang Xie, Zhaohui Wang +6
We report on an experimental comparison on critical intensities of nonlinear self-focusing in air with conventional focusing and spatiotemporal focusing schemes. Our results show t…
Backward air lasing actions induced by femtosecond laser filamentation: influence of population inversion lifetime
Hongqiang Xie, Guihua Li, Wei chu +5
We experimentally investigate generation of backward 357 nm N2 laser in a gas mixture of N2/Ar using 800-nm femtosecond laser pulses, and examine the involved gain dynamics based o…
