Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A theoretical framework of laser-assisted electron scattering induced by single-cycle laser pulses and a protocol of THz-wave-assisted electron diffraction method were developed, and their feasibilities were confirmed by numerical simulations. In order to demonstrate THz-wave-assisted electron diffraction method experimentally, optical systems for the tilted-pulse-front pumping method and the electro-optical sampling method were constructed. An apparatus for THz-assisted electron scattering was constructed by incorporating the optical systems into a laser-assisted electron scattering apparatus. Furthermore, a hollow-core-fiber type pulse compressor was developed for generation of few-cycle laser pulses in the near-infrared region, and few-cycle laser assisted electron scattering processes were observed for the first time.
