We report a new sensitive method using high-order harmonic generation to observe revival structure in fs-laser induced alignment of a rotational wave packet of molecules. Pump and probe fs-laser pulses with a time delay were focused collinearly into a pulsed N2gas jet, so that the pump pulse induces alignment of a ground-state rotational wave packet, and the delayed probe pulse produces harmonic radiation from the aligning molecules. The harmonic signal observed as a function of time delay has clearly demonstrated a typical time-dependent revival structure in the field-free alignment of molecules.

In this paper we have proposed a new excitation method to demonstrate a practical Ar/sub 2/* laser using a high intensity ultrashort pulse laser. A high intensity laser produced electrons will be utilized to initiate the Ar/sub 2/* production kinetics. We have observed a nonlinear increase of the Ar/sub 2/* emission intensity at 126 nm by changing the hollow fiber length. A small signal gain of 0.05 cm/sup -1/ was evaluated at 126 nm. Kinetic analysis revealed that the high intensity laser produced electrons via optical field ionization process actually initiated the Ar/sub 2/* production processes. This result is the first observation of the gain at 126 nm pumped by a compact device other than electron beam machine and will lead to the stimulated emission at 126 nm with a repetition rate of 10 Hz. © 2003 IEEE.

We have observed Ar 2 * emission at 126 nm by use of a high intensity laser pulse as an excitation source. Kinetic analysis revealed that high-intensity laser-produced electrons via optical field induced ionization (OFI) process initiated the Ar 2 * production kinetics. Ar 2 * production kinetics initiated by OFI electrons was mainly governed by the three-body association process, which was analogous to the case of electron beam excitation. The use of a hollow fiber controlled propagation characteristics of a high intensity laser pulse in a high-pressure gas, leading to the increase of the excimer emission intensity.

The observing of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) argon excimer based on an ultrashort-pulse high-intensity laser propagation was investigated. The laser propagation under high pressure conditions resulted in the observing of argon emission at 126 nm. In regard with it, the optical-field-induced ionization (OFI) process that initiated argon formation kinetics was also discussed.

We have developed a vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectroscopic system using a laser-produced plasma. Laser-produced rare gas plasma was initiated by a 10 Hz Q-switched YAG laser at the focused intensity of $10^{11}$ W/cm2. Among three different rare gas plasma emissions (He, Ne, and Ar), argon plasma was characterized by broad continuum emission with an integrated emission power of 8.4 kW in the VUV spectral region. The pulse width of the VUV emission of 62 ns (Full width at half maximum), which was governed by recombination processes in the plasma, determined the temporal resolution. Using this emission source, we have measured VUV transmission spectra of Nd3+:LaF3 crystal, which was a potential laser medium in the VUV. The transmission peak of the crystal coincided with the reported laser oscillation wavelength at 174 nm. The absorption coefficient at the wavelength was measured to be 0.7 cm-1.

We observed a small-signal gain of Ar* 2 emission at 126 nm by use of a hollow fiber to guide the high-intensity laser propagation in high-pressure Ar. The small-signal gain coefficient was measured to be 0.05 cm -1 at 126 nm. Kinetic analysis revealed that the electrons produced by the high-intensity laser through an optical-field-induced ionization process initiated the Ar* 2 production processes. The increase in the emission intensity was measured to be exp(2.5), with an increase in the fiber length. © 2003 Optical Society of America.

We report on the observation of [Formula Presented] emission at 126 nm by use of a hollow fiber to guide the high-intensity laser propagation in high-pressure Ar. A small-signal gain coefficient of [Formula Presented] was measured at 126 nm by this method. The increase of the [Formula Presented] emission intensity was measured to be [Formula Presented] with an increase of the fiber length up to 50 cm. Kinetic analysis revealed that the [Formula Presented] production processes were initiated by the electrons produced by the high-intensity laser through an optical-field-induced ionization (OFI) process. A rapid conductive cooling of the OFI electrons is favorable to initiate the [Formula Presented] formation kinetics more efficiently. This high-density cold plasma production method should be applicable for other vacuum ultraviolet rare-gas excimer lasers. © 2003 The American Physical Society.

Vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) continua emitted from a laser-produced plasma have been utilized for the spectroscopy of a solid state laser material. An absorption spectrum of 0.1%Nd:LaF 3 has been measured by use of the continuum emission. The minimum absorption coefficient of 1.4 cm -1 was evaluated at 174 nm.
