The single-frequency mode of this laser with a large excess of the lasing threshold is implemented due to longitudinal mode selection using an ultra-thin nickel metal film placed in the standing field node of the cavity. With such an excess of the lasing threshold, the natural linewidth component is very small (∼10<sup>−3</sup>Hz), which was determined from the heterodyne method of measuring natural fluctuations of lasing frequency. This method can be used in combination with the multibeam intracavity interferometry for measuring phase modulation at a level of 10<sup>−9</sup> rad Hz<sup>−1/2</sup>. To demonstrate the capabilities of the method, the electro-optical Kerr effect in air at atmospheric pressure in linearly polarized light was studied separately for extraordinary and ordinary waves. The Kerr and the Havelock constants were measured. A deviation from a purely quadratic dependence determined by the fourth power of the amplitude of a low-frequency electric field was found. A possible explanation of the detected deviation from the Kerr effect is the electrostriction.","PeriodicalId":17940,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139508180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is shown that the dissipation and a magnetic field suppress the quantum properties of the particle. This is especially true for the transverse motion with respect to the magnetic field. Over time, the coherent and squeezed states transform into the same static state, which is characterized by a zero uncertainty of the transverse coordinates and an uncertainty of the longitudinal coordinate, which contains information about the initial velocity of the particle.","PeriodicalId":17940,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139508101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The modeling and control of the breakdown and radiative processes occurring by the interactions of the free electrons with the heavy particles in the partially ionized medium, requires precise spatio-temporal description of the generated free electron density. This work presents an analysis of a free electron rate model describing the free electron density in air plasmas produced by nanosecond laser pulses. The model accounts for multiphoton and cascade ionization, and for electron diffusion, recombination, and attachment. A closed-form expression of the rate model is derived and validated by comparison with experimentally validated numerical solutions, showing very good agreement in a wide range of parameters. Simulation results are presented for different laser pulses and focal spot sizes and analysis is carried out regarding the dependence of the air plasma on the various laser radiation parameters. The presented approach is particularly useful for complex multi-scale models calculating the electron and ion temperature evolution, the thermoelastic expansion and the shock-wave following LIB of gases.","PeriodicalId":17940,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139508134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Security analysis indicates that the proposed SQSS protocol enables resilience against various potential attacks such as measure-resend, entangle-measure, internal, and Trojan attacks. Furthermore, our protocol is easy to generalize to multi-party scenarios without increasing the complexity of state preparation. Compared with some typical SQSS protocols, our protocol has higher qubit efficiency without the need for entanglement swapping operations.
