在中国原子能科学研究院的放电泵浦的紫外KrF超短脉冲激光放大装置上,开展了紫外超短脉冲激光与铜薄膜靶相互作用加速产生质子束的实验研究。紫外超短脉冲激光输出能量为30mJ、波长为248nm、脉冲宽度为500fs,采用离轴抛物面镜聚焦获得激光聚焦功率密度为1.2×10^17W/cm2。激光以45。入射5μm厚的铜薄膜靶,质子最大能量超过300keV。紫外超短脉冲激光的高对比度和高吸收效率是紫外激光加涑的优点。
Proton acceleration induced by ultraviolet laser interaction with a thin foil was studied on an ultra-short KrF laser amplifier called LLG50 in "CIAE. The energy spectrum was recorded by a Thomson ion spectrometer. The ultraviolet laser system generated ultra-short pulses with energy peak focal intensity is 1.2 × 10^17 W/cm2. of 30 mJ and pulse duration of 500 fs, and the The maximal energy of protons recorded in the target normal direction is higher than 300 keV, and fast electrons were generated by vacuum heating or resonance absorption. The advantages of ultraviolet laser proton acceleration are high contrast in the laser pulse and high absorption rate.
