First Offline Results from the S3 Low-Energy Branch
2022
International audience; We present the first results obtained from the S3 Low-Energy Branch , the gas cell setup at SPIRAL2-GANIL, which will be installed behind the S3 spectrometer for atomic and nuclear spectroscopy studies of exotic nuclei. The installation is currently being commissioned offline, with the aim to establish optimum conditions for the operation of the radio frequency quadrupole ion guides, mass separation and ion bunching, providing high-efficiency and low-energy spatial spread for the isotopes of interest. Transmission and mass-resolving power measurements are presented for the different components of the S3-LEB setup. In addition, a single-longitudinal-mode, injection-lo…
High-resolution laser system for the S3-Low Energy Branch
2022
International audience; In this paper we present the first high-resolution laser spectroscopy results obtained at the GISELE laser laboratory of the GANIL-SPIRAL2 facility, in preparation for the first experiments with the S$^3$-Low Energy Branch. Studies of neutron-deficient radioactive isotopes of erbium and tin represent the first physics cases to be studied at S$^3$. The measured isotope-shift and hyperfine structure data are presented for stable isotopes of these elements. The erbium isotopes were studied using the $4f^{12}6s^2$$^3H_6 \rightarrow 4f^{12}(^3 H)6s6p$$J = 5$ atomic transition (415 nm) and the tin isotopes were studied by the $5s^25p^2 (^3P_0) \rightarrow 5s^25p6s (^3P_1)$…
Self-focusing in Terbium Gallium Garnet using Z-scan
1998
International audience; When illuminated near its resonance with an Ar ion laser beam (lambda=488 nm), laser induced thermal self-focusing is observed in Terbium Gallium Garnet. The crystal exhibits a strong intensity dependent refractive index change Dn. The Z-scan technique is used to study the beam waist change due to Dn. The refractive index is found to be well described by a quadratic spatial distribution model. Both the sign and the distribution coefficient of Dn are determined.
Modèles quantiques à deux états avec croisements de niveaux décrits par les fonctions de Heun
2019
The thesis is devoted to the fundamental problem of excitation and manipulation of quantum systems, having discrete energy spectrum, via external laser fields. We examine the semiclassical time- dependent quantum two-state problem, when the external electromagnetic field is resonant or quasi-resonant for some two of many levels of the system. The focus of the thesis is on the analytic description of the non- adiabatic evolution of quantum systems subject to excitation by level-crossing field configurations. In the present thesis we classify the complete set of the semiclassical time-dependent quantum two-state models solvable in terms of the five function of the Heun class.Main results of t…
Revised Analysis of the Structure of the v1 Band of Methane
1983
Abstract The CARS spectrum of the v 1 band of 12 CH 4 at a pressure of 14 mbar was recorded using cw excitation in the cavity of a ring argon ion laser. The analysis of the intensity profile of the obarred spectrum led to the detection of inconsistencies with the hitherto proposed calculated positions of transitions with J = 7 to J = 10 and to a relocation of the corresponding lines.

Laser ablation in the air at atmospheric pressure is nowadays frequently applied in industry, chemical analysis, surgery… For a further development of laser ablation based technologies, it is necessary to better understand the laser – matter interaction. During the impact of a laser pulse on the surface of the treated material, a plasma plume forms above the target surface. This plume contains particles (electrons, ions, atoms) of ablated matter, as well as of ambient gas, if present. During the laser pulse, this plume absorbs a large amount of the laser beam energy, thus reducing the quantity of the laser radiation arriving to the target surface. Dimensions, as well as parameters of this p…
Fonctionnalisation de surfaces métalliques par des couches minces d'oxynitrures de titane obtenues par irradiation laser sous atmosphère contrôlée et…
2013
The technological advances in areas such as automotive and aerospace industries require materials capable of withstanding demanding conditions. Surface treatments are effective tools to improve the surface properties of materials while preserving their bulk properties. Besides many conventional processes, laser treatments are efficient methods for hardening and increasing the durability of materials. This work is focused on the growth of titanium oxynitride surface layers by laser irradiation of pure titanium plates with nanosecond pulsed sources. The influence of the laser treatment conditions on the composition and the structure of these surface layers was studied. In particular, for lase…
Comportement en fatigue thermomécanique à haute température d’un système barrière thermique texturé par laser
2020
In service life of Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC) systems for blade applications can be limited by the top-coat (TC) spallation under thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) loadings. To improve its TMF life, laser texturing at the bond-coat/top coat interface in the CMSX-4 Plus / γ-γ’ BC/ EB-PVD TC system has been investigated.Thanks to the study of the laser-matter interaction, it seems that the different Ni-based single crystal superalloys have similar laser ablation behaviors and they present almost no sub-surface damage after ablation. Nevertheless, the formation of melted matter near created cavities, possibly recrystallized, is often observed.Different patterns (holes, lines, grids) have been…
