[0007] Taking the initial phase difference of the two lasers as the first variable and the rotation direction of the electric field vector of the circularly polarized laser as the second variable, a plurality of groups of laser setting parameters are constructed;

[0008] Under each group of laser setting parameters, the compression condition and the maximum deuterium ion density information of the ultra-thin target in one-dimensional and two-dimensional conditions are analyzed by the particle simulation method, and further the optimal ion acceleration parameter setting information is obtained.

[0009] In one embodiment, the method further comprises: setting the rotation direction of the electric field vector of the left incident circularly polarized laser as right-handed, the rotation direction of the electric field vector of the right incident circularly polarized laser as left-handed, and the initial phase difference of the two lasers as 0, π / 2, π, 3π / 2, respectively, to obtain four groups of laser setting parameters.

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0030] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , a method for analyzing the interaction dynamics of double-beam counter-propagation laser and ultra-thin target is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0031] Step 102, constructing a physical model of the interaction of double-beam counter-propagation relativistic laser and ultra-thin target, and setting the simulation parameters of the physical model.

[0032] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 , two lasers are vertically incident from the left and right boundaries of the simulation region, and the length of the simulation box is set to 36μm and the height is set to 24μm. In the one-dimensional simulation environment, the spatial resolution used in the x direction is 0.0002μm, while in the two-dimensional simulation stage, the spatial resolution in the x direction and the y direction is 0.002μm, and other parameters remain the same.

[0033] The deuterium solid target is located in the center of the simulation box, the front surface of the solid target is 17.95μm away from the left boundary of the simulation space region, the thickness of the ultra-thin target is d=0.1μm, the height is h=24μm, and the height is consistent with that of the simulation box. The solid target is composed of deuterium ions and electrons, and the number density of deuterium ions and electrons is 50n c , wherein n c =1.1×10 27 m-3 is the plasma critical density corresponding to laser wavelength λ0= 1 μm. The grid resolution is 50 deuterium ions and 50 electrons in each grid. For circularly polarized laser, the intensity of both lasers is where the normalized amplitude E0is the maximum electric field amplitude of laser, e and m e are the charge and mass of electron, c is the speed of light in vacuum. The laser focal radius σ L = 6 μm, and the pulse width τ L = 10 T0, where T0= 3.3 fs is the laser period.

[0034] Step 104, taking the initial phase difference of the two lasers as the first variable and the rotation direction of the circularly polarized laser electric field vector as the second variable, constructing multiple sets of laser setting parameters.

[0035] Specifically, the influence of the initial relative phase difference (IRPD, i.e., variable φ 51 ) of the two lasers and the rotation direction of the circularly polarized laser electric field vector on the interaction process is considered, where the rotation direction of the electric field vector includes left-handed (LCP) and right-handed (RCP). Two groups of circularly polarized lasers are classified, as shown in Table 1.

[0036] Left side incident laser light Right side incident laser light 51 ]]> ​ 51 ]]> ​ 51 ]]> ​ 51 ]]> ​ RCP LCP 0 π / 2 π ]]> ​ 3π / 2 RCP RCP 0 π / 2 π ]]> ​ 3π / 2

[0037] Table 1 Circularly polarized laser variable classification

[0038] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of circularly polarized double-beam laser from left to right is given for different electric field vector rotation directions and initial relative phase differences. The two coordinate axes represent the starting position coordinates of the two lasers, i.e., the two boundary interfaces of the simulation box.

[0039] In order to be consistent with the coordinate system rules of the EPOCH program, it is stipulated that the laser propagation direction is the x-axis, the vertically upward direction is the y-axis, and the z-axis is determined by the right-hand screw rule. For the variable initial relative phase difference φ 51 , the initial phase angle of the left incident laser is fixed at 0 degrees, i.e., the electric field vector direction at the initial moment is consistent with the positive direction of the z-axis, and by changing the initial electric vector direction of the right incident laser, the electric vector directions of the two lasers have an angle φ 51 . It should be noted that for the RCP+LCP case, φ 51 remains a fixed value during laser propagation, but for the RCP+RCP case, φ 51 periodically changes during propagation.

[0040] Step 106, under each set of laser setting parameters, the compression of the ultra-thin target and the maximum deuterium ion density information in one-dimensional and two-dimensional conditions are analyzed by the particle simulation method, and further optimal ion acceleration parameter setting information is obtained.

[0041] In the one-dimensional condition, the different φ 51 Under the condition of a certain moment, the normalized amplitude a0 of the electric field along the axial direction, and the different φ 51 Under the condition of a certain moment, the axial distribution of the electron number density and the deuterium ion number density, by changing the initial relative phase difference φ 51 , the manipulation of the ion compression state and the movement of the solid target can be realized.

[0042] Further ion number density analysis, such as Figure 4 The maximum compression density of deuterium ions under different parameter conditions is given. From the figure, it can be seen that the maximum density of deuterium ions under the condition of φ 51 = π is much larger than that under other initial relative phase difference conditions, and the rest of the deuterium ion number density is basically stable at 200n c Around; at the same time, the RCP+RCP condition is not sensitive to the variable φ 51 , and is basically stable at 200n c Around.

[0043] The present application also carries out two-dimensional particle simulation after one-dimensional particle simulation, and observes the physical phenomena of the interaction between two circularly polarized lasers with different rotation directions and the solid target. First, the spatial distribution of the electric field intensity E y and the normalized amplitude a0 are analyzed, and the reflected laser at t = 35T0 is analyzed.

[0044] Analysis of the right and left circularly polarized laser pair (RCP+LCP):

[0045] As shown in Figure 5 , under the condition of different φ 51 , the spatial distribution of laser intensity at t = 35T0, wherein (a)-(d) is the spatial distribution of the laser electric field intensity E y , and (e)-(h) is the spatial distribution of the normalized amplitude of the laser. By Figure 5 It can be found that the two-dimensional simulation phenomenon is basically the same as the one-dimensional simulation, except that different phenomena appear when φ 51 = 0, and other conditions are consistent with the theoretical results: when φ 51 = 0.5π and φ 51The reflected light intensity on the left and right sides of the target is not the same when φ Figure 6 = 1.5π, which is consistent with the one-dimensional simulation. When φ 51 = 0, transverse instability occurs, and the light field differs greatly from the one-dimensional simulation. For the image of φ 51 = π, it can be found that the reflected light on the left side of the target is left-right symmetric, which indicates that transverse instability does not occur significantly during the interaction stage, and the steady-state analytical solution still exists in the two-dimensional process.

[0046] For the compression of the thin target, the time t = 29T0 is selected for analysis. Figure 6 (a)-(d) and 6(e)-(h) are the spatial distributions of the target electron density and deuterium ion density at this time. When φ 51 = 0.5π and φ 51 = 1.5π, the target moves left and right after being affected by the two beams of counter-propagating laser, which is due to the non-zero net optical pressure of the laser on the solid target. The overall effect makes the solid target move. For the case of φ 51 = 0, the target compression effect is the best, which is also the reason for the more intense development of instability. When φ 51 = π, the existence of the steady-state solution causes the optical pressure and the electrostatic pressure of the laser to be balanced, which leads to the less intense development of instability.

[0047] Analysis of the case of counter-propagating circularly polarized laser with right-handed circular polarization (RCP+RCP):

[0048] For two beams of circularly polarized laser with opposite rotating directions of electric vector, the best ion acceleration scheme is predicted by observing the two-dimensional simulation phenomena. Under four different initial relative phase differences, the reflected electric field intensity E y of the laser shows obvious differences, as shown in Figure 7 . Specifically, when φ 51 = 0.5π and φ 51 = 1.5π, the reflected laser on the left and right sides of the solid target shows great difference, which is the result of the combined action of transmission and reflection. For the cases of φ 51 = 0 and φ 51 = π, the electric field intensity on the left and right sides of the solid target is symmetrically distributed. The normalized intensity distribution under different φ 51 is basically symmetric, so further diagnosis of the solid target is needed to obtain the best ion acceleration effect.

[0049] Through the analysis of the electron spatial distribution Figure 8 (a)-(d) and the ion spatial distribution Figure 8(e)-(h) were analyzed, and it was found that the solid target did not move left or right in this case, which was significantly different from the RCP+LCP. The electron density and ion density at this moment were different in size with different φ 51 , and there was a significant difference in the spatial distribution, but by scanning the ion density images at the surrounding moments, it was found that these images only appeared at different moments, that is, the order of appearance was φ 51 = π, φ 51 = 0.5 π (φ 51 = 1.5 π), and φ 51 = 0, that is, φ 51 did not affect the movement of the solid target, nor did it significantly affect the compression effect of the target. At the same time, it can be found that there are many strip-shaped filaments in the range of the laser focal spot radius, which is because the development of transverse instability in this case is more intense than that of RCP+LCP, so it is reasonable that there is no steady-state solution.

[0050] Spectrum analysis:

[0051] The spectrum results of RCP+RCP and RCP+LCP were summarized to obtain the electron spectrum and deuterium ion spectrum, respectively; from Figure 9 (a) and (c), it can be found that the deuterium ion energy is the largest when φ 51 = 0 in both cases. At the same time, the ion cutoff energy is the smallest when φ 51 = π under the condition of RCP+LCP, because the solid target is relatively fixed during compression, which leads to the ion energy being unable to be improved to a very high level. Here, the electron spectrum was also diagnosed, as shown in Figure 9 (b) and (d). It can be found from the figure that the electron cutoff energy is the largest when φ 51 = 0 under the condition of RCP+LCP, and the smallest when φ 51 = π, which is consistent with the distribution of the ion spectrum; and the electron spectrum corresponding to the RCP+LCP condition has no obvious distinction, and the cutoff energy of the electron is not sensitive to the initial relative phase difference.

[0052] It can be concluded that when φ 51 = 0, the cutoff energy of the deuterium ion is the highest, about 34.8 MeV, corresponding to the best ion acceleration effect. Combined with Figure 8 (a)-(h), it can be predicted that this set of physical parameters will be the best scheme for generating neutrons. At the same time, for different left-handed and right-handed states, the movement of the solid target and the acceleration of the ions can be controlled by adjusting the left-handed and right-handed parameters of the two laser beams.

[0053] Optimal ion acceleration scheme:

[0054] By energy spectrum analysis, it is found that the optimal acceleration scheme corresponds to when 51 =0. Further scanning the maximum value of deuterium ion number density, the corresponding value under different parameter conditions is obtained. Figure 10 The maximum density value of deuterium ion in the compression process is given. For the RCP+LCP case, the compression density of deuterium ion when 51 =0 is the maximum, which is consistent with the previous preliminary judgment. While in the RCP+RCP condition, it is found that the relationship between ion number density and 51 is not significant, wherein the density when 51 =0 reaches 151.28n c , which is the largest ion number density among the eight cases.

[0055] Combined with energy spectrum analysis, it can be concluded that for RCP+LCP and 51 =0, the deuterium ion cutoff energy can reach 34.8MeV, the maximum compression density is 147.13n c , and the ion layer compression and ion acceleration effect are the best; while for RCP+RCP and 51 =0, the deuterium ion cutoff energy is 30.1MeV, the maximum compression density is 151.28n c , and there is also the best ion layer compression and ion acceleration.

[0056] In the above analysis method of the interaction dynamics of the double-beam counter-shooting laser and the ultra-thin target, based on the constructed physical model of the interaction of the double-beam counter-shooting relativistic laser and the ultra-thin target, the particle simulation method is used, the compression of the ultra-thin target and the maximum deuterium ion density information in one-dimensional and two-dimensional cases are analyzed by changing the initial relative phase difference and the rotation direction of the circularly polarized laser electric field vector of the two circularly polarized lasers, the ion acceleration effect information generated by the interaction of the counter-shooting laser and the ultra-thin target under different parameters is obtained, and then the optimal ion acceleration scheme is determined. The present application realizes the interaction of the two-beam counter-shooting relativistic laser and the ultra-thin target, labels the polarization direction and rotation direction of the two lasers, displays the labeling relationship between the ion acceleration and the laser parameters, and can provide a reference for the dynamics research of the double-beam counter-shooting laser and the ultra-thin target.
