Efficient ion beam generation in laser interactions with micro-structured targets

The maximum ion energy and acceleration efficiency have to be increased for practical applications of intense ion beams produced by intense short laser pulses incident on a thin foil. For this aim, we propose to use foil with a microscopic structure on the front size. We have prepared such targets b...
