BaGa2GeSe6
BGGSe is a nonlinear material that is attractive for high—frequency mixing and generation of ultrashort pulses due to its comparatively low dispersion and high damage threshold. Experimental studies show the ability of the material to generate pulses in the mid-IR range with an octave coverage of up to 18 microns. From the first experiment, it can be seen that a 2.6 mm long BGGSe crystal gives a pulse energy of 21 PJ at a frequency of 100 MHz with a spectral bandwidth from 5.8 to 8.5 microns and a pulse duration of 91 fs, which corresponds to less than four optical octaves and confirms the prospects of using this material to create ultrashort generation pulses.
New unique results on parametric transformations of laser radiation at BGS are presented in the articles. Many optical experiments require a wide range of laser frequencies, laser coherence, and high brightness. Desktop lasers and large synchrotron installations cannot meet all these requirements. Currently, a compact light source has been developed that provides simultaneous radiation in seven frequency octaves — from terahertz to the ultraviolet range. A desktop light source provides five orders of magnitude more brightness than synchrotron sources, and can become an important tool for hyperspectral spectroscopy and imaging in medical and environmental research. According to the head of the group, OSA researcher Jens Bigert from ICFO (Institut de Ciences Fotoniques), Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology, Spain, the desktop system would not work without three main components: an ultrafast mid-infrared light source, a specially designed photonic crystal fiber and a BaGa2GeSe6 crystal.
Regulation of the pressure in the fiber pump allows not only to change the spectral intensity depending on the experimental conditions, but also to obtain peak power in ultraviolet up to 2.5 MW, and power in THz up to 1.8 MW, which opens up completely new prospects for nonlinear and multidimensional spectroscopy. The seven-octave coherent radiation spectrum provides continuous tuning of radiation from ultraviolet to the terahertz range and makes it possible to use new multimodal measurement techniques, for example, in molecular spectroscopy, physical chemistry or solid state physics. For the first time, high peak power made it possible to achieve intensity values in the ultraviolet and terahertz spectral ranges, measured in TW/cm2, which makes it possible to study attosecond force fields and study new phenomena such as the visualization of electrons in crystal lattices and their interactions, phase transitions, superconductivity or topological physics. These scientific works are a breakthrough in science and in the creation of new technologies for the development of mankind.
