1. 1. Quantum Optical Description of High-order Harmonic Generation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Isabel Moreno; [2024]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : High-order Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a highly non-linear process in which an atom interacts with a strong laser field. The laser field lowers the atomic potential barrier allowing bound electrons to escape into the continuum through tunnel ionization, propagate, and, with some probability, recombine with the parent ion.

3. 2. Effects of Ultrafast Ionization in X-ray Coherent Diffraction Imaging

   University essay from KTH/Kemi

   Author : Arezu Sehati; [2023]
   Keywords : Coherent Diffraction Imaging; X-ray Free Electron Lasers; Refractive index; Core-shell nanoclusters; Rare-gas ionization; Koherent Diffraktionsavbildning; Röntgenfrielektronlaser; Brytningsindex; Core-shell-nanokluster; Ädelgasjonisering;

   Abstract : Koherent Diffraktionsavbildning med en intensiv röntgenpuls från en Frielektronlaser har möjliggjort strukturbestämning av isolerade nanopartiklar som inte går att studera med hjälp av konventionella metoder, så som elektronmikroskopi. En mycket kort pulslängd tillsammans med spridningssignalens beroende av objektets elektroniska struktur medför också möjligheten att studera inducerad ultrasnabb dynamik med denna teknik. READ MORE

4. 3. Generation of attosecond X-ray pulses in free-electron lasers using electron energy modulation and undulator tapering

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

   Author : Karl-Fredrik Boholm Kylesten; [2023]
   Keywords : attosecond; free-electron laser; XFEL; self-amplified spontaneous emission; SASE; tapering; energy modulation;

   Abstract : Free-electron lasers (FELs) are among the world's most intense artificial artificial sources of coherent light and are tunable to various wavelengths, including the X-ray spectrum. X-ray FELs (XFELs) are extremely useful for diffraction experiments to study molecules, materials, and quantum systems. READ MORE

5. 4. Spectral broadening of 4 mJ femtosecond pulses using a bulk multi-pass cell

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Saga Westerberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Lasers; Ultrashort; Nonlinear Optics; femtosecond; Multi-Pass Cell; Spectral broadening; pulse post-compression; Self phase modulation; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Nonlinear optical effects can be used for spectral broadening, which the basis of the field of post-compression of laser pulses. When the intensity of light becomes high enough the refractive index becomes intensity dependent, and as the intensity often varies both with position and time so does the refractive index.

6. 5. Feasibility Study of X-ray Free Electron Lasers in Fourth Generation Storage Rings

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/MAX IV-laboratoriet

   Author : Jordis Hansen; [2023]
   Keywords : XFEL; Storage Ring; Synchrotron Radiation; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the feasibility of a cavity based X-ray free electron laser in a fourth generation storage ring. The cavity design allows for modulation of the electron beam over several passes through the undulator. Simulations based on the PETRA IV facility are done to create the photon flux spectrum of a light pulse produced by an undulator. READ MORE
