Three-photon and four-photon absorption in lithium niobate measured by the Z-scan technique.

Open-aperture Z-scan measurements have been carried out to investigate the three-photon (3 PA) and four-photon absorption (4 PA) coefficients at 800 nm and 1030 nm wavelengths, respectively in congruent and stoichiometric lithium niobate (cLN, sLN) with different concentrations of Mg doping. The laser pulse duration at the two wavelengths were 40 and 190 fs. The peak intensity inside the crystals varied between approximately 110 and 550 GW/cm.

Possibility of CO laser-pumped multi-millijoule-level ultrafast pulse terahertz sources.

In the last decade, intense research has been witnessed on developing compact, terahertz (THz) driven electron accelerators, producing electrons with a sub-MeV-few tens of MeV energy. Such economical devices could be used in scientific and material research and medical treatments. However, until now, the extremely high-energy THz pulses needed by the THz counterparts of the microwave accelerators were generated by optical rectification (OR) of ultrafast Ti:sapphire or Yb laser pulses.
