Coherence and bandwidth measurements of harmonics generated from solid surfaces irradiated by intense picosecond laser pulses
We present measurements of the transverse and longitudinal coherence lengths of the fourth harmonic of a 1053-nm, 2.5-ps laser generated during high-intensity (up to 1019 W cm-2) interactions with a solid target. Coherence lengths were measured by use of a Young's double-slit interferometer. Th...
