Femtosecond Laser Interaction with High-Density Gas Jets

Abstract

The propagation of an intense and ultrashort laser pulse in a high pressure gas may be strongly modified because of the fast ionization induced by the intense optical field (1). The fast evolution of the ionization rate of the gas during the laser pulse induces both blue-shifting of the transmitted laser spectrum and strong self-defocusing of the laser beam (2).
