Abstract

A method for measuring the dead time of an optoelectronic streak camera with different linear sweep ranges is described. The proposed method was used for the PN-1 streak camera. Photographs of the time-resolved emission of a DRSh350-2 mercury arc flash lamp for linear sweep ranges of 50 and 100 ns are presented. The dead times of the PN-1 streak camera for linear sweep ranges of 25, 50, and 100 ns were 5, 75, and 105 ns, respectively. The photographs of time-resolved second-harmonic spectra emitted by plasmas of copper and aluminum targets that were obtained in experiments on the interaction of nanosecond laser radiation with the matter using a streak camera are presented.
