Monoenergetic electron beam generation in a laser-driven plasma acceleration

LASER PHYSICS LETTERS, Issue 2 2006
M. Adachi
Abstract We obtained a 7-MeV monoenergetic electron beam from a plasma with the electron density ne of 1.5 × 1020 cm,3 produced by a 2-TW 50-fs laser pulse. In both higher and lower sides of the density region of 4 × 1019 ÷ 4 × 1020 cm,3, energy spectra of electrons were bi-Maxwellian distribution function whose maximum electron energy and effective electron temperature were 30 MeV and approximately MeV, respectively. Observed first Stokes satellites in the forward scattering light spectra, and the density dependences of maximum electron energy and the effective temperature suggest that electrons are first accelerated by SMLWFA and are further accelerated by direct laser acceleration (DLA) in the ne region of more than 2 × 1020 cm,3; a cascade acceleration by SMLWFA and DLA. A Stokes satellite peak observed with the monoenergetic beam suggests that the monoenergetic beam would be accelerated by SMLWFA. (© 2006 by Astro, Ltd.

Dynamical CPA theory of magnetism , harmonic approximation

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (B) BASIC SOLID STATE PHYSICS, Issue 2 2003
Y. Kakehashi
Abstract We have developed the dynamical coherent potential approximation (CPA) to the correlated electron system on the basis of the functional integral method and the harmonic approximation. The theory becomes exact in the high temperature limit, reproduces the results of the second order perturbation theory for small Coulomb interaction, and takes into account the terms to describe the strong correlation limit. The numerical calculations show that the theory describes the Curie,Weiss susceptibility, a large reduction of the Curie temperature due to the dynamical effects, and a many-body satellite peak as well as a band narrowing in the density of states.

Abstract High structural and optical quality 1.3 µm GaInNAs /GaAs quantum well (QW) samples with 42.5% indium content were successfully grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The growth of well layers was monitored by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) peak intensity of the GaIn0.425NAs/GaAs (6 nm/20 nm) 3QW is higher than, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is comparable to, that of In0.425GaAs/GaAs 3QW, indicating improved optical quality due to strain compensation effects by introducing N to the high indium content InGaAs epilayer. The measured (004) X-ray rocking curve shows clear satellite peaks and Pendellösung fringes, suggesting high film uniformity and smooth interfaces. The cross sectional TEM measurements further reveal that there are no structural defects in such high indium content QWs. (© 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) [source]


Cathodoluminescence, High-Resolution X-Ray Diffraction and Transmission-Electron-Microscopy Investigations of Cubic AlGaN/GaN Quantum Wells

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (C) - CURRENT TOPICS IN SOLID STATE PHYSICS, Issue 1 2003
D.J. As
Abstract The structural and optical properties of cubic Al0.25Ga0.75N/GaN multi quantum well structures grown on GaAs (001) substrates by radio-frequency plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are reported. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD), and cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements are used to characterize the cubic Al0.25Ga0.75N/GaN quantum wells. The interfaces between the quantum-well and barrier layers are well resolved, abrupt and the entire structure shows an excellent periodicity. Due to the high dislocation density of about 1010 cm,2 a severe broadening of the XRD-reflection is observed and superlattice satellite peaks are only weakly indicated. Further, a wavy structure is seen in TEM at the coalescence of submicron-size grains. Nevertheless, CL at room temperature shows a strong emission of quantized states at 3.352 eV. [source]
