Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The interaction of intense femtosecond laser pulse with matter can generate various radiations (electrons, ions, X-rays and so on), and being expected as next-generation radiation sources, it has been intensively studies. However, laser-generated electromagnetic wave is not well studied. Based on our last study of divergence-free transport of laser-produced electrons along a long metal wire, we have experimentally demonstrated that a pulse surface electromagnetic wave is generated and travel along the wire. With electron deflectometry using femtosecond laser generated and accelerated electrons, the dynamics of electromagnetic fields around the wire has been investigated, and it has been successfully observed for the first time that the Sommerfeld wave is induced by the intense laser pulse and travels along the wire.
