Pulse compression of submillijoule few-optical-cycle infrared laser pulses using chirped mirrors.
We report generation of 400 microJ, 13.1 fs, 1425 nm optical parametric amplifier laser pulses. Spectral broadening of a 100 Hz optical parametric amplifier laser source is achieved by self-phase modulation in an argon-filled hollow-core fiber, and dispersion compensation is performed using chirped mirrors. This laser source will be useful for ultrafast time-resolved molecular orbital tomography.
متن کاملGeneration of few-cycle terawatt light pulses using optical parametric chirped pulse amplification.
We demonstrate the generation of 9.8+/-0.3 fs laser pulses with a peak power exceeding one terawatt at 30 Hz repetition rate, using optical parametric chirped pulse amplification. The amplifier is pumped by 140 mJ, 60 ps pulses at 532 nm, and amplifies seed pulses from a Ti:Sapphire oscillator to 23 mJ/pulse, resulting in 10.5 mJ/pulse after compression while amplified fluorescence is kept belo...
متن کاملDevelopment of cryogenically-cooled Yb:YLF chirped-pulse amplification laser for pumping few-cycle optical-parametric chirped-pulse amplification
As a pump source for intense few-cycle laser system with optical-parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA), we have been developing cryogenically-cooled Yb:YLF chirped-pulse amplification laser. So far we have successfully obtained high energy output pulse with 107 mJ of energy from a single-stage regenerative amplifier, which can be compressed to 2.2 ps in duration without pedestal. An ad...
متن کاملSimultaneous compression and characterization of ultrashort laser pulses using chirped mirrors and glass wedges.
We present a simple and robust technique to retrieve the phase of ultrashort laser pulses, based on a chirped mirror and glass wedges compressor. It uses the compression system itself as a diagnostic tool, thereby making unnecessary the use of complementary diagnostic tools. We used this technique to compress and characterize 7.1 fs laser pulses from an ultrafast laser oscillator.
متن کاملCompression of attosecond harmonic pulses by extreme-ultraviolet chirped mirrors.
In the race toward attosecond pulses, for which high-order harmonics generated in rare gases are the best candidates, both the harmonic spectral range and the spectral phase have to be controlled. We demonstrate that multilayer extreme-ultraviolet chirped mirrors can be numerically optimized and designed to compensate for the intrinsic harmonic chirp that was recently discovered and that is res...
