Funding: Work supported by JSPS Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (A) 10001690 In usage of radiation, it is important to study the process of chemical effects of ionizing radiation in a material. Pulse radiolysis is a method to trace these rapid initial chemical reactions by ionizing radiation. As a pump beam, we are using 5MeV electron beam produced from the S-band photo cathode RF-Gun. In nanosecond timescale pulse radiolysis, it is required the stable probe light of a broad spectrum. And especially in picosecond timescale pulse radiolysis, probe light should have short pulse width to use stroboscopic method. Therefore, in order to develop a wide range of timescale experimental system, we have been developing a Supercontinuum (SC) light as a probe light, which is generated by nonlinear optical process of short pulse IR laser in photonic crystal fiber (PCF). As a result, the SC light spectrum is broad enough to use as a probe light. Then we tried to measure the absorption spectrum of hydrated electron by SC light, we successfully observed good signal-noise ratio data both nanosecond and picosecond experiment with unified pulse radiolysis system. In this conference, we will report details of these results and future prospects. |
