Dense plasma channel generation in air using femtosecond-picosecond laser pulse sequences

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We densify dilute plasma in femtosecond laser filaments by heating it with energetic 200 picosecond-long laser pulses. Differently from the case of nanosecond heating, the densified plasma channels, under certain conditions, remain smooth and continuous.
