Description

Technical Field

[0002] Plasmon holographic grating, as an advanced plasma optical device, has been applied in various fields, especially in generating vortex lasers of relativistic intensity.

[0003] Relativistic vortex laser-plasma interactions have attracted extensive attention in the past few decades. With its spiral electromagnetic field and unique orbital angular momentum (OAM), vortex lasers have become a unique tool for accelerating and manipulating relativistic charged particles, and can deeply study the angular momentum (AM) transfer between charged particles and fields under strong field conditions. However, these exciting theoretical and numerical studies mainly rely on the relativistic intensity of vortex lasers and the high-quality vortex phase.

[0004] In order to advance the experimental study of relativistic vortex laser-plasma interaction, various theoretical and numerical schemes for generating relativistic intensity vortex lasers have been proposed. For theoretical or simulation-based studies, the precise three-dimensional structure of the desired plasma target in these schemes requires high laser time contrast, which makes them unsuitable for high repetition rate laser systems.

[0005] In addition, vortex lasers rely on energy transfer between particles, electrostatic waves, and electromagnetic waves through Raman amplification or Brillouin scattering amplification, which limits their ability to further increase the intensity of vortex lasers. In the experiment, the maximum intensity of vortex lasers generated using a reflective phase plate or an off-axis spiral phase mirror remained at 10 20 W / cm 2 To further increase the output intensity, the diameter of the optical element must be continuously increased.

[0006] In addition, it has become a consensus among researchers in this field that the measurement of the vortex phase of relativistic intensity vortex lasers is of great significance in experiments, but there is currently no effective measurement method. Summary of the invention

Since the surface plasmon holographic grating (SPH) is formed under laser irradiation, it is assumed that the depth of the surface plasmon holographic grating (SPH) is positively correlated with the energy of laser deposition. The relationship between the depth of the surface plasmon holographic grating (SPH) and the laser energy can be expressed as: ,in is the reference light intensity at the plasma target surface, the pulse duration of the object light and the pulse duration of the reference light Both In order to reconstruct the phase profile of the object beam, the laser E i,π / 2 ,laser E r ,laser E o ,laser E i Four cases of surface plasmon holographic gratings formed by irradiating the plasma target surface.
