The propagation of an intense laser pulse through an upward density-gradient plasma in a self-modulated laser wakefield acceleration (SM-LWFA) is investigated by using particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations. In the fully relativistic and kinetic PIC simulations, the relativistic and kinetic effects including Landau damping enhance the electron dephasing. This electron dephasing is the most important factor for limiting the energy of accelerated electrons. However, the electron dephasing, which is enhanced by relativistic and kinetic effects in the homogeneous plasma, can be forestalled through the detuning process arising from the longitudinal density gradient. Simulation results show that the detuning process can effectively maintain the coherence of the laser wake wave in the spatiotemporal wakefield pattern, hence considerable energy enhancement is achievable. The spatiotemporal profiles are analyzed for the detailed study on the relativistic and kinetic effects. In this paper, the optimum slope of the density gradient for increasing electron energy is presented for various laser intensities.

A high-power Nb:glass laser system(Simmyung I) has been contructed and tested. In this system, we used a Nb:YLF laser as a master oscillator, a 4-pass amplifier for pre-amplification, 5 stages of rod amplifiers, and spatial filtering and image reaying usits. The system has demonstrated in excess of 80J(2TW) with 40 psec(FWHM) pulse duration. Output energy, gain and spatial were measured at each amplification stage. With this laser system a preliminary X-ray generation experiment was performed. Pinhole images, X-ray diode signals and X-ray speriment were obtained for the irradiated target of copper. Detailed descriptions of the system performance and the X-tay generation experiment are presented.

This work concentrated on the effect of different laser beams on the microstructure and dielectric properties of $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticles at different calcinations times during the gelling preparation step. The nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel method. A green (1000 mW, 532 nm) and red laser beam (500 mW, 808 nm), were applied vertically at the center of stirring raw materials. The samples were sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2, 4, and 6 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that samples prepared under the green laser have the highest purity. The FT-IR spectra showed that the stretching and bending vibrations of TiO bond without any other bonds, which are compatible to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results. Samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scan electron microscopy (SEM), and UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Characterization showed the samples prepared under the green laser to have the highest particle size (~ 50 nm) and transparency for all sintering durations. Laser beam effects on electrical characterization were studied. BT nanoparticles prepared under the green laser show the higher dielectric constant, which was found to increase with sintering temperature.

The development of the femtosecond laser (fs laser) with its ability to provide extremely rapid athermal ablation of materials has initiated a renaissance in materials science. Sample milling rates for the fs laser are orders of magnitude greater than that of traditional focused ion beam (FIB) sources currently used. In combination with minimal surface post-processing requirements, this technology is proving to be a game changer for materials research. The development of a femtosecond laser attached to a focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (LaserFIB) enables numerous new capabilities, including access to deeply buried structures as well as the production of extremely large trenches, cross sections, pillars and TEM H-bars, all while preserving microstructure and avoiding or reducing FIB polishing. Several high impact applications are now possible due to this technology in the fields of crystallography, electronics, mechanical engineering, battery research and materials sample preparation. This review article summarizes the current opportunities for this new technology focusing on the materials science megatrends of engineering materials, energy materials and electronics.

본 논문에서는 공기 중에서 높은 레이저 복사 조도에 따른 효과에 의해 발생되는 금속 플라즈마의 발달 과정에 대하여 레이저 펄스가 끝나는 이후로 쉐도우그래프(Shadowgraph) 가시화 방법을 이용하여 현상을 연구하였다. 따라서 레이저에 의한 데토네이션의 발생과 이를 일으키는 연소 과정 대한 연구가 진행되었다. 본 논문의 가장 중요한 점들은 높은 레이저 에너지에 의해 삭마 된 기체 상태의 알루미늄과 공기로부터의 산소와의 화학 반응의 진행을 관측했을 뿐만 아니라, 화학 반응 최종 산화물을 X선 회절 분석법(X-Ray Diffraction)을 통해 관측한 것이다. 그리고 레이저를 통해 유도된 화학적 반응 파와 공기 중에서의 알루미늄 분진 폭발의 데토네이션과의 양적인 평가를 유도하였다. 이러한 연구는 덩어리 상태의 금속 샘플에서 공기 중의 산소를 이용하여 데토네이션을 발생시키는 새로운 방법을 제시할 것으로 여겨진다.

At Rutherford Appleton Laboratory(RAL), a high-repetition rate ps exicmer laser-plasma x-ray source has been developed for x-ray lithography with a calibrated output of up to 1 watt X-ray average power at 1nm wavelength. In a previous reports this compact x-ray source was used to print 0.18$\mu$m lines for a gate on Si-FET devices and deep three-dimensional structure with 100$\mu$m length, 25$\mu$m width, and 48 $\mu$m depth for a nanotechnology. The deep X-ray lithography is called as LIGA thchnology and getting a wide interest as a new technology for a nano-device. In this report all this works are summarized.

높은 레이저 복사 조도에 발생되는 금속 플라즈마의 발달 과정과 레이저 펄스 이후의 shadowgraph를 이용해 공기 중에서의 데토네이션과 연소 현상에 대해 연구되었다. 본 논문의 가장 중요한 점은 높은 레이저 에너지에 의해 삭마 된 알루미늄 플라즈마와 공기로부터의 산소와의 화학반응의 진행을 XRD를 통해 관측한 것이다. 또한 레이저를 통해 유도된 화학적 반응 파와 공기 중에서의 알루미늄 분진 폭발의 데토네이션과의 양적인 평가를 유도하였다. 이러한 연구는 덩어리 상태의 금속 샘플에서 산화제를 필요로 하지 않고 데토네이션을 발생시키는 새로운 방법을 제시할 것으로 여겨진다.

Soft X-ray는 자연상태의 생물체를 높은 대비(high contrast)의 영상으로 관찰할 수 있는 광원이다. 1GW급의 광분해 옥소레이저 ($\lambda$=1.315$\mu\textrm{m}$, E=12.7J)를 몰리브덴(Mo) 표적에 집속시켜 플라즈마를 발생시켰으며 플라즈마에서 방출되는 넓은 파장 영역의 연속스펙트럼을 0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 알루미늄 필터를 거치게 하여 soft X-ray 영역에 중심세기를 갖는 광원을 얻었다. X-ray용 resist로 감도가 좋은 PBS를 사용하여 그물망(mesh), 거미줄, 적혈구의 replica를 얻었다. 본해능에 미치는 두 가지의 주된 영향인 광원의 크기에 의한 영향과 Fresnel 회절효과를 고찰하고 실험결과를 비교하였다. 본 실험에서는 0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$이하의 분해능을 얻었다.

ZnO thin films for light emission device have been deposited on sapphire and silicon substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique(PLD). A Nd:YAG laser was used with the wavelength of355 nm. In order to investigate the emission properties of ZnO thin films, Pl measurements with an Ar ion laser a light source using an excitation wavelength of 351 nm and a power of 100 mW are used. All spectra were taken at room temperature by using a grating spectrometer and a photomultiplier detector. ZnO exhibited Pl bands centers around 390, 510 and 640 nm, labeled near ultra-violet(UV), green and orange bands. Structural properties of ZnO thin films are analyzed with X-ray diffraction(XRD).
