Outline of Final Research Achievements |
With an pulse of electrons which are produced and accelerated by the interaction of an intense femtosecond laser pulse with a foil target, compression of the electron pulse with a compact phase rotator, and "ultrafast electron diffraction (UED)" with the compressed electron pulses have been demonstrated. To develop high intensity electron source for single pulse UED, a new method “sheath break by laser pre-irradiation”, which pull out electrons efficiently from laser plasma, has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated with high-contrast laser pulse shaped by a plasma mirror. Derivative fruits of research have been also obtained, such as guiding and collimation of laser accelerated electrons on a metal wire, ultrafast electron deflectometry, and generation of strong terahertz surface wave on a metal wire.
