We demonstrate a 13-fold increase in hard x-ray bremsstrahlung (10 - 200 keV) emitted by a copper plasma created by 100 fs, 806 nm pulses at $10^{14}-10^{15}$ Wcm$^{-2}$. This enhancement is achieved by roughening the target surface with copper nanoparticles of ~15 nm size. A simple model that invokes local field modifications by surface plasmon excitation and `lightning rod' effects explains the observed enhancement quantitatively and provides pointers to the design of structured surfaces for maximizing the emission.
Harmonic emission from cluster nanoplasmas subject to intense short laser pulses
研究了短脉冲强红外激光作用下团簇纳米等离子体的谐波辐射。在以前的出版物[M。Kundu等人,Phys. Rev. A 76,033201(2007)],我们报道了粒子单元模拟结果,其显示当电离和膨胀团簇的Mie等离子体频率与相应的谐波频率共振时,低阶谐波的共振增强。同时,我们发现,高次谐波几乎不存在于光谱中,即使在高强度。目前的文件是集中在分析建模的过程中。我们发现,由于非线性共振的动力学随机性抑制高次谐波的发射。
