Abstract:A scheme for ion-based high-harmonic generation from water window to keV x-ray is investigated. He1+ ions with 54.42-eV ionization potential extend the harmonic cutoff energy to 1 keV. The transverse selective-zoning method of quasi-phase-matching is utilized to overcome the severe plasma dispersion in a highly ionized medium. The calculated conversion efficiency reaches about 15% of the perfect phase-matching condition. Wavelength tunability is achieved by incorporating a programmable spatial-light modulator … Show more
A scheme for ion-based HHG of 1.6-keV X-ray based on the transverse selective-zoning method of quasi-phase-matching was proposed. The calculated conversion efficiency reached about 14% of the perfect phase-matching condition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
