Proposed Source of Sub-picosecond Far Infrared Radiation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We suggest that far infrared, radiation (FIR) with gigawatt peakpower can be generated from a plasma produced at the focus of a high-intensity, ultra-short laser pulse as a result of the coherent acceleration of electrons through ponderomotive forces. A well defined vacuum-plasma interface will optimize the generated FIR.
