Times Cited Count:45 Percentile:85.53(Instruments & Instrumentation)An improvement of laser-focused peak intensity has been achieved in a JAERI 100-TW Ti:sapphire chirped-pulse amplifier chain with a feedback controlled adaptive optics system operating at a 10 Hz repetition rate. The Strehl ratio was enhanced to 0.8 by means of a Bimorph deformable mirror with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor. Measurements of optical parameters of the laser pulse and an experimental tunneling ionization yield of helium have practically confirmed focusing to ultra-relativistic intensities of over 10 W/cm within 16 % accuracy.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:4.7(Physics, Applied)An improvement of laser-focused peak intensity has been achieved in a JAERI 100 TW Ti:sapphire chirped-pulse amplifier chain with a feedback-controlled adaptive optics system. Measurements of optical parameters of the laser pulse and an experimental tunneling ionization ratio of a rare gas atom with laser energy scaling have practically confirmed an ultrarelativistic intensity of over 10 W/cm operating at a 10 Hz repetition rate.
