摘要
The spatial motion and effective duration of a traveling plasma grating formed by two interfering femtosecond laser filaments in gases is characterized by its Doppler effect imparted on a probe pulse. The shift velocity determined experimentally agrees with the theoretical calculations. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3568888]
