摘要: Ionization injection is attractive as a controllable injection scheme for generating high quality electron beams using plasma-based wakefield acceleration. Because of the phase-dependent tunneling ionization rate and the trapping dynamics within a nonlinear wake, the discrete injection of electrons within the wake is nonlinearly mapped to a discrete final phase space structure of the beam at the location where the electrons are trapped. This phenomenon is theoretically analyzed and examined by three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations which show that three-dimensional effects limit the wave number of the modulation to between >2k_{0} and about 5k_{0}, where k_{0} is the wave number of the injection laser. Such a nanoscale bunched beam can be diagnosed by and used to generate coherent transition radiation and may find use in generating high-power ultraviolet radiation upon passage through a resonant undulator. 其他題名: Phys Rev Lett 出版者: United States: American Physical Society (APS) 出版日期: 2016-07-15 出處: Physical Review Letters, 2016-07, Vol.117 (3), p.034801-034801, Article 034801 資源來源: American Physical Society Journals 識別號: ISSN: 0031-9007 識別號: EISSN: 1079-7114 識別號: DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.117.034801 識別號: PMID: 27472116
