Measuring Ultralow Charge Densities In Gases With Picosecond Mid-IR Laser Breakdown

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Avalanche breakdown with picosecond, mid-IR lasers allows the detection of single free electrons in gases with precise spatial location. Using this method, we measure radiationinduced charge densities (down to 103 cm−3) near a radioactive source.
