Optimal generation of spatially coherent soft X-ray isolated attosecond pulses in a gas-filled waveguide using two-color synthesized laser pulses

Journal Article Jin, Cheng ; Hong, Kyung -Han ; Lin, C. D. - Scientific Reports

Here, we numerically demonstrate the generation of intense, low-divergence soft X-ray isolated attosecond pulses in a gas-filled hollow waveguide using synthesized few-cycle two-color laser waveforms. The waveform is a superposition of a fundamental and its second harmonic optimized such that highest harmonic yields are emitted from each atom. We then optimize the gas pressure and the length and radius of the waveguide such that bright coherent high-order harmonics with angular divergence smaller than 1 mrad are generated, for photon energy from the extreme ultraviolet to soft X-rays. By selecting a proper spectral range enhanced isolated attosecond pulses are generated. Wemore »« less

Generation of Intense Low-Divergence Isolated Soft-X-Ray Attosecond Pulses in a Gas-Filled Waveguide Using Three-Color Synthesized Laser Pulses

Journal Article Li, Baochang ; Tang, Xiangyu ; Wang, Kan ; ... - Physical Review Applied

Isolated attosecond pulses (IAPs) in the soft-x-ray (SXR) region have been successfully produced via high-order harmonic generation in a gas medium at several laboratories, but pulse energies are much lower compared to the IAPs in the extreme ultraviolet. Here, we show that in a gas-filled hollow waveguide, an efficient gating method using a few-cycle three-color synthesizer is able to generate stronger SXR IAPs. We show that an 104-as IAP in the SXR region (central energy of 210 eV) with a higher pulse energy (0.9 nJ) and a lower divergence (within 1.5 mrad) can be generated with a three-color laser beammore »« less

Generation of intense coherent attosecond X-ray pulses using relativistic electron mirrors

Journal Article Kulagin, V V ; Kornienko, V N ; Cherepenin, Vladimir A ; ... - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

We analyse the steepening of the leading edge of femtosecond petawatt pulses with the use of plasma layers and show that, at an electron density several times higher than the critical one, an asymmetric (in time domain) pulse can be produced with an amplitude of the first half-wave differing little from the maximum pulse amplitude. Using numerical simulation, we have studied the interaction of such pulses with nanometre-thick films, including the generation of relativistic electron mirrors and the reflection of a counterpropagating probe pulse from such mirrors. The resulting coherent X-ray pulses have a duration of {approx}120 as and amore »« less

Angular distribution in two-photon double ionization of helium by intense attosecond soft-x-ray pulses

Journal Article Barna, Imre F ; Radiation and Environmental Physics Department, KFKI Atomic Energy Research Institute, P.O. Box 49, H-1525 Budapest ; Jianyi, Wang ; ... - Physical Review. A

We investigate two-photon double ionization of helium by intense ({approx_equal}10{sup 15} W/cm{sup 2}) ultrashort ({approx_equal}300 as) soft-x-ray pulses (E=91.6 eV). The time-dependent two-electron Schroedinger equation is solved using a coupled channel method. We show that for ultrashort pulses the angular distribution of ejected electrons depends on the pulse duration and provides insight into the role of electron correlations in the two-electron photoemission process. The angular distribution at energies near the 'independent-electron' peaks is close to dipolar while it acquires in the 'valley' of correlated emission a significant quadrupolar component within a few hundred attoseconds.

Generation of subterawatt-attosecond pulses in a soft x-ray free-electron laser

Journal Article Huang, Senlin ; Ding, Yuantao ; Huang, Zhirong ; ... - Physical Review Accelerators and Beams

Here, we propose a novel scheme to generate attosecond soft x rays in a self-seeded free-electron laser (FEL) suitable for enabling attosecond spectroscopic investigations. A time-energy chirped electron bunch with additional sinusoidal energy modulation is adopted to produce a short seed pulse through a self-seeding monochromator. This short seed pulse, together with high electron current spikes and a cascaded delay setup, enables a high-efficiency FEL with a fresh bunch scheme. Simulations show that using the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) parameters, soft x-ray pulses with a FWHM of 260 attoseconds and a peak power of 0.5 TW can be obtained.more »« less
