1. 1. 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

3. 2. 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.

4. 3. Evaluation of white-light generation as possible seed for a mid-infrared optical parametric chirped pulse amplifier

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

   Author : Chuang Lu; [2017]
   Keywords : nonlinear linear optics; ultrafast optics; Mid-infrared generation; near-infrared; Optical parametric amplification; Optical Parametric Chirped-pulse Amplification; supercontinuum generation; white-light generation; laser induced filamentation; Dispersion-scan; nonlinear propagation; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : White-light spectra of different crystals, based on 1030-nm intense pump pulses have been investigated in order to derive a near-infrared seed for mid-infrared generation. Among ten crystals, YAG (yttrium aluminium garnet), KGW (potassium gadolinium tungstate) and YVO4 (yttrium orthovanadate) exhibit the most suitable properties for supercontinuum generation with high efficiency for spectral broadening as well as high tolerance to optical damage.

5. 4. Control of a Synchronous Machine

   University essay from Elektricitetslära

   Author : Jens Olofsson; [2010]
   Keywords : synchronous machine; BLDC; Sensorless;

   Abstract : The VAWT project at Uppsala University has successfully managed to develop a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). The VAWT has many benefits compared to the Horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) which are the most common wind turbine design today. READ MORE
