Abstract

The application of a PS-1/S1 picosecond streak camera (SC), which was developed at the General Physics Institute (Russian Academy of Sciences) for investigating fast processes in semiconductor physics, laser physics, and accelerator engineering, is described. It is shown that using the PS-1/S1 SC it is possible to record one-dimensional images (restricted by a narrow slit) of fast processes with a time resolution of no worse than 1 ps in a wide spectral range: from UV (115 nm) to near-IR (1.5 μm) radiation with a dynamic recording range of ≥10. The presented experimental results show the wide potential capabilities of applying the developed SC in various fields of experimental physics.
