Near the critical layer, a p-polarized laser that impinges on a dense plasma having density gradient at an angle to the density gradient transforms into a plasma wave. Even after the laser pulse has stopped, the plasma wave survives. The electrons close to the crucial layer are heated by the plasma wave. Increased plasma pressure […]
Terahertz radiation finds applications in medical science, spectroscopy, security screening, communication, etc. There are several methods that focus on the interaction of lasers with plasma, and laser beating process is an effective scheme for the Terahertz radiation generation. In this scheme, a resonance between the beating frequency and plasma frequency needs to be achieved. In […]
