0090344MourouThis award supports continuation of a US-France cooperative research project on ultrafast lasers between the NSF Science and Technology Center for Ultrafast Optical Science (CUOS) at the University of Michigan, directed by Gerard A. Mourou, and the Laboratory for Applied Optics, French National Center for Scientific Research at the Ecole Polytechnique, directed by Daniele Hulin. The groups will continue to collaborate on the development of next generation ultraintense lasers, in particular, aspects of high peak power, spatial and temporal beam quality, and new amplifying media. In this next phase, the groups will: (1) extend and characterize harmonic generation to the water window with good efficiency; (2) combine their efforts on electron acceleration and injection using Laser Wakefield Acceleration techniques. The collaboration will be pursued through an exchange of US and French postdoctoral researchers. Both sides will benefit from complementary expertise and facilities and will advance applications of ultrahigh laser intensities to new fields of physics research.This award is co-supported by the Division of International Programs in the Directorate for Social, Behaviorial, and Economics Sciences and by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences.

0090344-该奖项支持由Gerard A.Mourou领导的密歇根大学NSF超快光学科学(CUOS)科学和技术中心与法国理工学院法国国家科学研究中心之间关于超快激光的美法合作研究项目的继续。两个小组将继续在下一代超强激光的开发方面进行合作，特别是在高峰值功率、空间和时间光束质量以及新的放大介质方面。在下一阶段，两个小组将：(1)将谐波产生以良好的效率扩展到水窗口并对其进行表征；(2)结合他们在电子加速和注入方面的努力，使用激光尾波场加速技术。合作将通过美国和法国博士后研究人员的交流来进行。双方将从互补的专业知识和设施中受益，并将推动超高激光强度在新的物理研究领域的应用。该奖项由社会、行为和经济科学局的国际项目部和数学和物理科学局的多学科活动办公室共同支持。
