Reflection and Transmission of High Intensity Femtosecond Laser Pulse Focused on Very Thin Plastic Foils

  • Chapter
Ultrafast Processes in Spectroscopy

Abstract

The 150 fs pulse of the LOA Ti:Sapphire laser has been focused at an intensity of 5×1017 W/cm2 on a 800Å plastic foil. The reflected and transmitted laser radiation resulted strongly affected by Self Phase Modulation effects. Even if the measurements were time integrated, the analysis of the spectra give information on laser plasma interaction at different times.
