Abstract:
A new method and associating system has been presented to characterize pre-pulses of femtosecond laser using laser filamentation in transparent media. Pre-pluses of the laser system has been measured experimentally and it is in good agreement with the results obtained by third order cross-correlator. This method can be used for fast detection of temporal laser intensity relatively in order to avoid formation of pre-plasmas before laser matter interaction experiments.Keywords:

A simple model of multiple filamentation of single femtosecond laser pulses in LiF was obtained on the basis of a nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The results of a computer simulation were compared with experimentally observed fluorescent traces of filaments in LiF.

The filamentation of femtosecond pulses has attracted significant attention, owing to its unique characteristics and related applications. The self-focusing critical power of femtosecond pulses is one of the key parameters in the filamentation process and its application. However, the experimental determination of this power remains a challenging task. In this study, we propose an experimental approach to investigating the critical power for self-focusing of both femtosecond Gaussian and vortex beams with relatively low topological charges by analyzing the changes in the focal spot at different propagation distances. Our work offers a practical and convenient method for determining the self-focusing critical power of femtosecond pulses.

The influence to filamentation of femtosecond by atmospheric turbulence at wavelength of 400 nm has been studied numerically. Simulations show that the distance of filamentation at 400 nm is advanced, the number of filaments increases, and the energy of filaments decreases with the addition of turbulent screen. Compared with the filaments formed by the 800 nm femtosecond laser, the nonlinear propagation of 400 nm laser has a longer filamentation distance in the turbulent atmosphere, and the clamping light intensity of the filaments is higher, but the number of filaments has reduced. With the increase of propagation distance, the multifilament structure disappears and the beam gradually converges into a stable monofilament structure. The position of the monofilament structure at 400 nm is closer than the 800 nm. Therefore, stable filament structure can be obtained more easily with a femtosecond laser at 400 nm.

The possibility of the influence of thermal effects on the formation of color centers during laser femtosecond filamentation in a LiF crystal has been investigated theoretically. The conditions are formulated under which the influence of thermal effects can be noticeable.
