Tracing dynamics of laser-induced fields on ultrathin foils using complementary imaging with streak deflectometry

We present a detailed study of the electric and magnetic fields, which are created on plasma vacuum interfaces as a result of highly intense laser-matter interactions. For the field generation ultrathin polymer foils (30–50 nm) were irradiated with high intensity femtosecond (10^{19}–10^{20}  W/cm^{...
