在强激光与等离子体的相互作用中, 通常能够产生时间尺度长达百纳秒量级的微波辐射, 形成的复杂电磁环境会干扰或损坏机械电子设备, 并给物理过程的准确认识与表征带来困难. 然而, 目前对于微波辐射的产生机制的研究还不够系统和完善. 本文通过系统地改变纳秒激光与等离子体作用过程中入射的激光能量以改变入射激光强度, 发现微波辐射强度随激光强度非单调变化. 在较低的激光强度下, 辐射强度随激光强度的增加先增加后减小, 辐射场时间波形呈现连续振荡的特征, 辐射频谱包含低于和高于0.3 GHz两部分分量; 在较高的激光强度下, 辐射强度随激光强度的增加而增加, 辐射场时间波形表现为数十纳秒的单极性辐射, 辐射频谱主要包括0.3 GHz以下的分量. 分析表明, 导致微波波形和频谱差别的原因是辐射机制发生了变化. 在较低的激光强度下, 微波辐射由偶极辐射和靶上电子束向真空出射共同作用产生, 其中偶极辐射占主导; 在较高的激光强度下, 微波辐射主要由靶上电子束向真空出射产生. 研究结果对于理解纳秒激光与等离子体相互作用过程中的微波辐射机制具有比较重要的意义, 同时也为借助微波辐射诊断激光与等离子体相互作用过程中的逃逸电子、靶面鞘层场等问题提供了参考.Microwave radiation in several gigahertz frequency band is a common phenomenon in laser-plasma interactions. It can last hundreds of nanoseconds and cause huge electromagnetic pulse disturbances to electrical devices in experiments. It has been found that the microwave radiation might originate from the oscillation of charged chambers, the return current on target holders, the dipole radiation, the quadrupole radiation, and the electron bunch emitted from the plasma to the vacuum. The microwave radiation waveform, frequency spectrum, and intensity depend on many factors such as laser pulse, target, and chamber parameter. To distinguish the microwave radiation mechanisms, the influence of the experimental parameters on the radiation characteristics should be investigated systematically. In this paper we investigate the microwave radiation influenced by the laser intensity in nanosecond laser-plasma interactions. It is found that the microwave radiation intensity varies nonmonotonically with the laser intensity. For the lower laser intensity, the radiation intensity first increases and then decreases with laser intensity increasing, the radiation field continuously oscillates in tens of nanoseconds, and the radiation spectrum contains two components below and above 0.3 GHz, respectively. For the higher laser intensity, the radiation intensity increases with the laser intensity increasing, the radiation field has a unipolar radiation lasting tens of nanoseconds, and the radiation spectrum mainly includes the component below 0.3 GHz. The waveform and spectrum analysis show that these phenomena are due to the difference of the radiation mechanisms at different laser intensities. The frequency component below and above 0.3 GHz are induced by the electron bunch emitted from the plasma to the vacuum and the dipole radiation respectively. At low laser intensity, both the dipole radiation and the electron bunch emitted from the plasma contribute to the microwave radiation. At high laser intensity, the microwave radiation is mainly produced by the electron beam emitted from the plasma to the vacuum. This work is significant for understanding the microwave radiation mechanisms in nanosecond laser-plasma interactions, and implies the potential to provide a reference to the diagnosing of the escape electrons and the sheath field on the target surface by the microwave radiation in laser-plasma interaction.
