Stimulated Compton backscattering and the high intensity Kapitza-Dirac effect
- 1. AT ampersand T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ (USA)
Description
The authors report the scattering of low energy free electrons from an optical standing wave at intensities of 1013 to 1014W/cm2. This interaction is the high intensity limit of the Kapitza-Dirac effect, wherein electrons Bragg scatter from the standing wave lattice. In this regime, the momentum exchanged exceeds the reciprocal lattice vector by a factor of 500 or more, and the scattering rate is comparable to the optical frequency. The electron motion is most easily analyzed by classical mechanics. 11 refs., 9 figs
