中文摘要 | It is shown that a laser wakefield driven in the highly nonlinear regime or the wave-breaking regime in underdense plasma can emit ultrabroad-band bright extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation pulses, which are as short as a few hundreds of attoseconds in one-dimensional simulations and a few femtoseconds in multi-dimensional cases. The emission is caused by a transverse current sheet co-moving with the laser pulse. This current sheet is formed by an electron density spike with trapped electrons in the wakefield with a certain transverse kinetic momentum of electrons left behind the laser pulse. This residual momentum appears when the laser pulse undergoes a strong self-modulation and subsequent pulse steepening at the front. In the multi-dimensional simulations, the XUV emission is found only near the laser axis with a much smaller spot size than the laser pulse due to its transverse ponderomotive force effects. The present scheme provides an alternative method for producing single bright ultrashort XUV pulses for ultrafast applications. |
