Relativistic Whistle: High Order Harmonics Induced by the Ultra-Intense Laser Pulse Propagating inside the Fiber

Abstract

A propagation of an ultra-intense short laser pulse in a fiber is investigated with two dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations. The fiber is a narrow hollow channel with walls consisting of overdense plasma. In the nonlinear interaction of the laser pulse with fiber walls high order harmonics are generated. Sufficiently high harmonics, for which the fiber walls are transparent, propagate outwards at certain angle. This is a scheme of a generator of ultra-short pulses of coherent light with a very short wavelength.
