1. 1. Measuring the Pulse Duration and the Time-Dependent Polarisation State of Ultrashort Laser Pulses with the D-Scan Technique

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

   Author : Daniel Díaz Rivas; [2022]
   Keywords : pulse characterisation; ultrashort; laser; femtosecond; dispersion scan; polarisation; wave plate; temporal reconstruction; electric field reconstruction; time-dependent polarisation; polarisation gate; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Ultrashort laser pulses with time-dependent polarisation states have many applications, such as the generation of isolated attosecond pulses and the study of the optical chirality of molecules. In this project the polarisation gate, built from two quarter-wave plates of different orders, is thoroughly characterised in experiment and simulation. READ MORE

3. 2. Quantification of cerebral blood flow with 15O-water PET : A comparison study between PET/CT and PET/MR and two different blood sampling instruments

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik; Umeå universitet/Diagnostisk radiologi

   Author : Amanda Eriksson; [2021]
   Keywords : Cerebral Blood Flow; CBF; oxygen-15-labelled water; PET CT; PET MR; Quantification of CBF; Image Derived Input Function; IDIF; Blood Sampled Input Function; BSIF; Arterial Input Function; AIF; Tracer Kinetic Modelling; Single Tissue Compartmental Model; 1TCM;

   Abstract : Cerebral blood flow quantification is a vital diagnostic tool for disease monitoring and used for diagnosing a variation of pathological conditions. The human brain requires roughly about 20 % of the total cardiac output to sustain normal functioning, hence the perfusion of blood is an important factor to deliver oxygenated blood. READ MORE

4. 3. All solid state single-shot Dispersion scan (D-Scan) for ultrashort laser pulses

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

   Author : Shekhar Jadhav; [2019]
   Keywords : Dispersion scan; d-scan; Single shot d-scan; Si-scan; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Ultrashort laser pulses play an important role in many applications in science and technology, from attosecond science to time resolved spectroscopy and material processing. For applications of ultrashort laser pulses, it requires a complete characterization of the electric field of the pulse, which includes both phase and amplitude of the electric field. READ MORE

5. 4. 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.
