In this paper we report the measurement of laser-driven proton acceleration obtained by irradiating nanotube array targets with ultrashort laser pulses at an intensity in excess of 1020 W cm−2. The energetic spectra of forward accelerated protons show a larger flux and a higher proton cutoff energy if compared to flat foils of comparable thickness. Particle-In-Cell 2D simulations reveal that packed nanotube targets favour a better laser-plasma coupling and produce an efficient generation of fast electrons moving through the target. Due to their sub-wavelength size, the propagation of e.m. field into the tubes is made possible by the excitation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons, travelling down to the end of the target and assuring a continuous electron acceleration. The higher amount and energy of these electrons result in turn in a stronger electric sheath field on the rear surface of the target and in a more efficient acceleration of the protons via the target normal sheath acceleration mechanism.

本論文では、ナノチューブアレイターゲットに1020 W cm−2を超える強度の超短パルスレーザーを照射することによって得られる、レーザー駆動陽子加速の測定について報告する。前方加速された陽子のエネルギースペクトルは、同等の厚さの平板フォイルと比較して、より大きなフラックスとより高い陽子カットオフエネルギーを示す。Particle-In-Cell 2次元シミュレーションにより、充填されたナノチューブターゲットがより優れたレーザー・プラズマ結合を促進し、ターゲット内部を移動する高速電子の効率的な生成をもたらすことが明らかになった。そのサブ波長サイズにより、電磁場のチューブ内への伝播は表面プラズモンポラリトンの励起によって可能となり、ターゲットの末端まで伝播して連続的な電子加速を保証する。これらの電子のより高い量とエネルギーは、結果としてターゲット後面におけるより強いシース電場をもたらし、ターゲット垂直シース加速機構による陽子のより効率的な加速を実現する。
