We theoretically investigate the frustrated double ionization (FDI) of Ar atoms with counter-rotating two-color circular (CRTC) laser fields using the three-dimensional (3D) classical ensemble method. Our results show that the FDI probability depends upon the intensity ratio of the CRTC laser fields. The FDI event accompanied with the recollision excitation with subsequent ionization is prevalent and three pathways exist in FDI processes driven by CRTC laser fields. The momentum distribution of a recaptured electron at the ionization time after recollision indicates that the momentum being close to the vector potential is a necessary condition for FDI events to occur. In addition, the recaptured electron most probably transitions to a Rydberg state of which the quantum number is ten in the CRTC fields.

Chlorin e6: a promising photosensitizer of anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects in PDT.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the activation of photosensitizers (PSs) by visible laser light at the target site to catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species, resulting in tumor cell death and blood vessel closure. The efficacy of PDT depends on the PSs, the amount of oxygen, and the intensity of the excitation laser. PSs have been extensively researched, and great efforts have been made to develop an ideal photosensitizer.

In living organisms, the natural motion caused by heartbeat, breathing, or muscle movements leads to the deformation of tissue caused by translation and stretching of the tissue structure. This effect results in the displacement or deformation of the plane of observation for intravital microscopy and causes motion-induced aberrations of the resulting image data. This, in turn, places severe limitations on the time during which specific events can be observed in intravital imaging experiments.

We investigate the ultrafast electron correlation effects during non-sequential double ionization (NSDI) of argon subjected to a combined femtosecond field composed of counter-rotating two-color circularly polarized (TCCP) pulse laser using a 3D classical ensemble model (CEM). Our simulation results reveal that manipulation of the carrier-envelope phase (CEP) of the external driving field modulates the dynamical behavior of the two electrons, resulting in a notable sensitivity of their momentum distribution to the relative phase of two components of the counter-rotating TCCP field. Through inversion analysis, we uncover the capability to direct electrons toward a single direction, thereby facilitating focused ion-electron collisions on the attosecond timescale.

We propose and demonstrate an ultra-wide tunable mode-locked all-fiber laser based on nonlinear amplifying loop mirror (NALM) with the output of cylindrical vector beams (CVBs). The tuning range covers from 1029 nm to 1098 nm through the intracavity nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) filter effect. The switchable CVBs between radially and azimuthally polarized beams with mode purity above 90% are generated by incorporating a broadband few-mode long-period fiber grating (LPFG).

The controlled visible spatial modes and vortex beams with tunable properties are highly sought after in cutting-edge applications, such as optical communication. In this study, by utilizing a hybrid pumping scheme, we demonstrate an ultra-compact, 607 nm orbital Poincaré laser based on a diode-pumped Pr:YLF laser. The system can generate various structured modes, including Laguerre-Gaussian (LG), Hermite-Gaussian (HG), and Hermite-Laguerre-Gaussian (HLG), all of which are mapped onto a first-order orbital Poincaré sphere.
