We report on a highly-efficient experimental scheme for the generation of deep-ultraviolet ultrashort light pulses using four-wave mixing in gas-filled kagom\'e-style photonic crystal fiber. By pumping with ultrashort, few $\mu$J, pulses…
We report an ultrafast and efficient way to create the maximum coherence between the two lower states in a -like atomic systems, driven by two nonlinearly chirped few-cycle pulses. The phenomenon of coherent population trapping and…
High-harmonic generation is one of the most extreme nonlinear-optical processes observed to date. By focusing an intense laser pulse into a gas, the light-atom interaction that occurs during the process of ionising the atoms results in the…
It is shown that when relativistically intense ultrashort laser pulses are reflected from the boundary of a plasma with a near-critical density, Doppler frequency shift leads to generation of intense radiation both in the high-frequency, up…
This work theoretically investigates high-order harmonic generation in rare gas atoms driven by two temporally delayed ultrashort laser pulses. Apart from their temporal delay, the two pulses are identical. Using a single-atom model of the…
We use two continuous-wave (CW) laser beams of 780 nm and 515 nm to optically drive $^{85}$Rb atoms in a heated vapor cell to a low-lying Rydberg state 10D$_{5/2}$. We observe a collimated ultraviolet (UV) beam at 311 nm, corresponding to…
Vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light is critical for the study of molecules and materials, but the generation of femtosecond pulses in the VUV region at high repetition rates has proven difficult. Here, we demonstrate the efficient generation of…
A theory is developed and applied to the study of opportunities and specific features of coherent control of four-wave mixing as well as of the accompanying processes in the continuous-wave regime, which involve transitions between bound…
We show that the divergence of extreme ultraviolet pulses from high harmonic generation, which is directly linked to the shape and size of the refocused beam, can be controlled by the relative delay between the fundamental and its intense…
Four-wave mixing in resonant atomic vapors based on maximum coherence induced by Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage (SCRAP) is investigated theoretically. We show the advantages of a coupling scheme involving maximum coherence and…
We report the generation of intense deep ultraviolet pulses at 200 nm with a duration of 48 fs and pulse energy of 130 uJ, achieved via cascaded sum frequency generation using 800 nm femtosecond pulses in barium borate crystals. Efficient…
The coherent radiation spectrum of two-level polar molecules with UV transition is studied at the multiphoton resonant excitation by a moderately strong laser field. The spectrum corresponding to harmonic generation and low-frequency…
In this paper, we demonstrate a domain inversion crystal structure to study the cascaded three-wave mixing process in a two peak Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage. We have achieved efficient wavelength conversion, which can be performed…
High harmonic generation is a convenient way to obtain extreme ultraviolet light from table-top laser systems and the experimental tools to exploit this simple and powerful light source for time-resolved spectroscopy are being developed by…
We demonstrate an efficient scheme for the generation of broadband, high-energy, circularly polarized femtosecond laser pulses in the deep ultraviolet through seeded degenerate four-wave mixing in stretched gas-filled hollow capillary…
Continuous-wave coherent radiation in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV)wavelength region at 121 nm will be essential for future laser-cooling of trapped antihydrogen [1]. Cold antihydrogen will enable both tests of the fundamental symmetry…
The efficiency of a coherent VUV source at 125 nm, based on 2-photon resonant four-wave mixing in mercury vapor, has been enhanced by up to 2 orders of magnitude. This enhancement was obtained by locally heating a liquid Hg surface with a…
A method is proposed for the formation of femto- and subfemtosecond pulses of the deep ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet radiation via generating the third harmonic of femtosecond laser pulses during their resonant interaction with alkali…
We introduce a new scheme for generating short-wavelength coherent broadband radiation with well-controlled spectral characteristics. It is based on shaping long-wavelength femtosecond pulse to coherently control atomic resonance-mediated…
We use a Raman four-wave mixing process to read-out light from atomic coherence which is continuously written. The light is continuously generated after an effective delay, allowing the atomic coherence to evolve during the process.…
