The spectroscopic methods for the ultrafast electronic and structural dynamics of materials require fully coherent extreme ultraviolet and soft X-ray radiation with high-average brightness. Seeded free-electron lasers (FELs) are ideal sources for delivering fully coherent soft X-ray pulses. However, due to state-of-the-art laser system limitations, it is challenging to meet the ultraviolet seed laser’s requirements of sufficient energy modulation and high repetition rates simultaneously. The self-modulation scheme has been proposed and recently demonstrated in a seeded FEL to relax the seed laser requirements. Using numerical simulations, we show that the required seed laser intensity in the self-modulation is ~3 orders of magnitude lower than that in the standard high-gain harmonic generation (HGHG). The harmonic self-modulation can launch a single-stage HGHG FEL lasing at the 30th harmonic of the seed laser. Moreover, the proof-of-principle experimental results confirm that the harmonic self-modulation can still amplify the laser-induced energy modulation. These achievements reveal that the self-modulation can not only remarkably reduce the requirements of the seed laser but also improve the harmonic upconversion efficiency, which paves the way for realizing high-repetition-rate and fully coherent soft X-ray FELs.

分布式全相参雷达是一种新体制、颠覆性雷达技术,可将若干单元雷达进行信号处理级合成处理,实现N 3 信噪比增益,可突破雷达功率孔径积的限制。由于星载平台雷达系统各单元间距较远,星间无线相位估计与同步则成为核心问题之一。本文建立分布式相位同步理论模型,通过对相位误差分析,提出一种循环往返式相位同步方式。相比于主-从相位同步方式,打破了分布式中心站限制,提高了系统抗干扰能力和算法稳健性。仿真结果证明了方法的有效性。
