Self-guided propagation of ultrashort IR laser pulses in fused Silica

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Intense ultrashort IR laser pulses propagating through atmosphere undergo important changes in their spatial and spectral characteristics. They self-organize in the form of narrow filaments with high peak intensity, which persist over exceptional long distances.1-3 This spectacular effect is explained in terms of a dynamic competition between self-focusing and multi-photon ionization.
