Abstract

Angular distribution of the backscattered nitrogen fluorescence induced by femtosecond laser filamentation in air has been studied. The experimental results demonstrate that the fluorescence intensity forms multiple rings and is amplified in the backward direction through amplified spontaneous emission (ASE). More importantly, the ASE signal features an angular dependent gain coefficient. The results are valuable for the optimization of the remote-sensing setup by the filamentation in air.
