Interaction of laser radiation with matter. Laser plasma

Possible efficient conversion of laser radiation into plasma self-radiation

G. A. Vergunova, V. B. Rozanov


Abstract: A model is proposed for the calculation of the parameters of targets which efficiently convert absorbed laser energy into thermal self-radiation of a plasma, as a function of the energy, power density, and wavelength of the laser radiation. The conversion efficiency predicted for these targets is ~90% at power densities of 10¹²–10¹⁵ W/cm².
