We describe measurements of the DC electrical conductivity warm dense matter using ultrafast terahertz (THz) pulses. THz fields are sufficiently slowly varying that they behave like on timescale electron–electron and electron–ion interactions hence probe DC-like responses. Using a novel single-shot electro-optic sampling technique, laser-generated was determined with <1 ps temporal resolution. present details detection methodology as well considerations for experiments. We, then,...
Abstract Key insights in materials at extreme temperatures and pressures can be gained by accurate measurements that determine the electrical conductivity. Free-electron laser pulses ionize excite matter out of equilibrium on femtosecond time scales, modifying electronic ionic structures enhancing scattering properties. The transient evolution conductivity manifests energy coupling from high temperature electrons to low ions. Here we combine accelerator-based, high-brightness multi-cycle...
We present an experimental setup capable of measuring the near DC conductivity laser generated warm dense matter using single-shot terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. The uses a reflective echelon and balanced detection to record THz waveforms with minimum detectable signal 0.2% in single pulse. describe details data analysis procedure transmission on aluminum that has been heated electron temperature 0.5 eV.
