Аннотация:Synchronized proton acceleration by ultraintense slow light (SASL) in low-density targets has been
studied in application to fabricated carbon nanotube films. Proton acceleration from low-density plasma
films irradiated by a linearly polarized femtosecond laser pulse of ultrarelativistic intensity was considered as result of both target surface natural contamination by hydrocarbons and artificial volumetric doping of low-density carbon nanotube films. The 3D particle-in-cell simulations confirm the SASL concept [A. V. Brantov et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 085004 (2016)] for proton acceleration by a femtosecond petawatt-class laser pulse from realistic low-density targets with a hydrogen impurity, quantify the characteristics of the accelerated protons, and demonstrate a significant increase of their energy compared with the proton energy generated from contaminated ultrathin solid dense foils.
