- Abstract
High-pulse repetition rate lasers allow significant enhancement in the average power of the low-order harmonics generation in isotropic media. We report on the third (343-nm) and fifth (206-nm) harmonics generating in air and different nanoparticle-containing laser-produced plasmas by applying Yb-doped fiber laser delivering 37-fs, 100-kHz, 1030-nm, 0.5-mJ pulses. Different characteristics of these processes (power and density dependences, influence of impeding processes, role of synthesized nanoparticles, variations of the spectral modulation of driving pulses, etc.) are analyzed. We compare the formation of the plasmas on the surfaces of aluminum, carbon, manganese, and titanium bulk species, as well as quantum dots of metal sulfides as the media for low-order harmonics generation, using 250-fs (1030-nm) and 5-ns (1064-nm) heating pulses at different delays between the heating and driving pulses. Average power of about 20 mW was estimated for the third harmonic emission from metal plasmas, with 3 × 1016 UV photons (343 nm) emitted per second.
