Title: A benchtop shock physics laboratory: Ultrafast laser driven shock spectroscopy and interferometry methods

Abstract

Common Ti:sapphire chirped pulse amplified laser systems can be readily adapted to be both a generator of adjustable pressure shock waves and a source for multiple probes of the ensuing ultrafast shock dynamics. Here, we detail experimental considerations for optimizing the shock generation, interferometric characterization, and spectroscopic probing of shock dynamics with visible and mid-infrared transient absorption. While we have reported results using these techniques elsewhere, in this work we detail how the spectroscopies are integrated with the shock and interferometry experiment. The interferometric characterization uses information from beams at multiple polarizations and angles of incidence combined with thin film equations and shock dynamics to determine the shock velocity, particle velocity, and shocked refractive index. Visible transient absorption spectroscopy uses a white light supercontinuum in a reflection geometry, synchronized to the shock wave, to time resolve shock-induced changes in visible absorption such as changes to electronic structure or strongly absorbing products and intermediates due to reaction. Mid-infrared transient absorption spectroscopy uses two color filamentation supercontinuum generation combined with a simple thermal imaging microbolometer spectrometer to enable broadband single shot detection of changes in the vibrational spectra. These methods are reflected here in the study of shock dynamics at stresses frommore » 5 to 30 GPa in organic materials and from a few GPa to >70 GPa in metals with spatial resolution of a few micrometers and temporal resolution of a few picoseconds. This experiment would be possible to replicate in any ultrafast laser laboratory containing a single bench top commercial chirped pulse amplification laser system.« less
