Abstract:

Tapered undulators are designed to generate broadband, chirped radiation for advanced synchrotron light sources. However, the complete electric-field waveform of the radiation has never been directly measured. Here, we report the first, to the best of our knowledge, direct characterization of a chirped wavepacket generated from a tapered undulator using spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction (SPIDER). The retrieved spectral phase reveals a distinct linear chirp, and its magnitude shows essential agreement with theoretical predictions. This work provides the first experimental validation of the chirped waveform generated from an undulator, enabling advanced temporal control of next-generation light sources.

IR Spectrometers

There are two main infrared (IR) spectrophotometers: dispersive IR spectrometers and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers. In a dispersive IR spectrometer, a beam of infrared radiation produced by a hot wire is divided into two parallel equal-intensity beams using mirrors. One beam passes through the sample, while another is a reference beam. The beams then move through the monochromator, which separates the radiations into a continuous spectrum of different frequencies. The...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used....
