Examples of upshift


upshift
For this case, the amplitude of the downshift peak becomes larger than that of the upshift peak.
The spectrum also shows a frequency upshift, while the magnitude of the peak is not changed.
The frequency upshift and downshift caused by the rapid ionization and the collisional energy losses can then be clearly demonstrated.
Both the frequency upshift and the pulse lengthening may provide experimental diagnostics for microcavity generation.
This is a ray-tracing model for frequency upshift of waves interacting with relativistic plasma perturbations, such as ionization fronts and plasma wakefields.
The upshift decreases the critical density value for the trapped radiation and therefore wavelengths much shor ter than l escape from the cavity.
In tunnelionizing gases, the laser undergoes radial divergence, frequency upshift [8-10], and ring formation [11] due to nonlinear refraction.
The experimental results show that the peak of the frequency spectrum of the transmitted pulse starts with an upshift tendency as the ionization increases.
In other words, the ' effective ' collision frequency can become comparable to the ionization frequency, so the amount of frequency upshift and downshift will be of the same order of magnitude.
The corresponding upshift of the spectrum maximum is of the order of 100% and the spectrum as a whole experiences large extension in the blue side.
