Enhancement of third harmonic generation by a laser-induced plasma

  • 1. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80523 (United States)

Description

We demonstrate more than two orders of magnitude in enhancement of conversion of an ultrafast probe pulse to the third harmonic that is time delayed with respect to a pump pulse. The enhancement is observed in various atomic and molecular gases over a range of pressures
