Download or read book Short Wavelength Laboratory Sources written by Alan Michette and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our ability to manipulate short wavelength radiation (0.01-100nm, equivalent to 120keV-12eV) has increased significantly over the last three decades. This has lead to major advances in applications in a wide range of disciplines such as: the life and medical sciences, including cancer-related studies; environmental science, including studies of pollution and its effects; archaeology and other cultural heritage disciplines; and materials science. Although expansion in application areas is due largely to modern synchrotron sources, many applications will not become widespread, and therefore routinely available as analytical tools, if they are confined to synchrotrons. This is because synchrotrons require enormous capital and infrastructure costs and are often, of necessity, national or international facilities. This seriously limits their scope for applications in research and analysis, in both academia and industry. How many universities, research institutes or even industrial laboratories would have electron microscopes if electron sources cost ú100M or more Hence the need to develop bright but small and (relatively) cheap x-ray sources, not to replace synchrotrons but to complement them. Written by a distinguished team of international authors this exemplary new handbook is based on the COST Action MP0601: Short Wavelength Laboratory Sources. The contents are divided into five main sections. The introductory section provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of radiation, generation mechanisms and short wavelength laboratory sources. The middle sections focus on modelling and simulation, source development: improvement and characterisation and integrated systems: sources, optics and detectors. The final section looks at recent applications.

Download or read book High Energy and Short Pulse Lasers written by Richard Viskup and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-09-07 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives the readers an introduction to experimental and theoretical knowledge acquired by large-scale laser laboratories that are dealing with extra-high peak power and ultrashort laser pulses for research of terawatt (TW), petawatt (PW), or near-future exawatt (EW) laser interactions, for soft X-ray sources, for acceleration of particles, or for generation of hot dense thermal plasma for the laser fusion. The other part of this book is dealing with the small-scale laser laboratories that are using for its research on commercial sources of laser radiation, nanosecond (ns), picosecond (ps), or femtosecond (fs) laser pulses, either for basic research or for more advanced applications. This book is divided into six main sections dealing with short and ultrashort laser pulses, laser-produced soft X-ray sources, large-scale high-power laser systems, free-electron lasers, fiber-based sources of short optical pulse, and applications of short pulse lasers. In each chapter readers can find fascinating topics related to the high energy and/or short pulse laser technique. Individual chapters should serve the broad spectrum of readers of different expertise, layman, undergraduate and postgraduate students, scientists, and engineers, who may in this book find easily explained fundamentals as well as advanced principles of particular subjects related to these phenomena.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this research effort has been to assess the possibility of producing a short-wavelength chemical laser system pumped by an intense light source. The lasing systems that we have concentrated on are XeCl, which emits at 308 mn, and Xe2Cl, with a peak emission at 480 nm. The latter is favored in systems with high Xe concentrations. Both systems have been demonstrated to be efficient lasers when discharge or electron-beam pumping is utilized. We have considered pumping by an intense, blackbody (Planckian) light source. Thus, we have studied the excimer fluorescence yield over a wide range of excitation energies accessible with a 40,000 K blackbody (6.4 to> 12.8 eV) source. Several photochemical reaction channels have been identified in Xe/Cl2 mixtures that produce the desired excimers. The scaling of the fluorescence yield with reactant pressure has been studied for each reaction mechanism. The reaction channels scale differently with reactant pressure, causing the scaling behavior of the total fluorescence output to be interrelated and complex. Quenching processes in the excimer systems have been studied and a rate constant for quenching of Xe2Cl by CCl4, an alternative chlorine source, has been measured. The efficiency of coupling radiant energy into the excimer system via absorption by Cl2 or collision-induced absorption by Xe-Cl2 collision pairs in the vacuum-UV (VUV) region of the spectrum remain two major unknown factors in assessing the system performance.
