Third harmonic order imaging as a focal spot diagnostic for high intensity laser-solid interactions

As the state of the art for high power laser systems increases from terawatt to petawatt level and beyond, a crucial parameter for routinely monitoring high intensity performance is laser spot size on a solid target during an intense interaction in the tight focus regime (<10m). Here we prese...
