Description
We consider circular ultra-intense laser radiation interacting with a
rigid nano-foil within the attractive potential of an immobile ion background in 1D. We show that the foil performs an-harmonic oscillations and
has always a finite recurrence time that depends on the foil density and
the irradiation parameters of the laser radiation. Under specific radiation and density conditions the foil can acquire large kinetic energy and
combining this with targeted irradiation conditions large quantum
efficiencies. We will solve the corresponding equations for cascading in a perturbative manner and compare with the predictions of
our numerical simulation model.
