Compression after compressor: threefold shortening of 200-TW laser pulses

Compression of a 12-J laser pulse from 63 to 21 fs is experimentally demonstrated for a beam 18 cm in diameter. The compression is implemented for a pulse freely propagating in glass under conditions of self-phase modulation and subsequent compensation for dispersion under reflection from dispersion mirrors. This simple and inexpensive technique for increasing multiply the pulse power is characterised by almost 100 % energy efficiency and can be used at the output of any ultra-high-power laser, without any changes in its optical scheme.

SRS converter – compressor of femtosecond ytterbium laser pulses

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) conversion of femtosecond pulses of an ytterbium laser at a wavelength of 1.03 μm is performed in compressed hydrogen under conditions of nonlinear phase modulation. Temporal compression of frequency-chirped Stokes pulses is carried out, as a result of which 400-fs laser pulses are converted into 27-fs Stokes pulses with a wavelength of 1.8 μm. An average Stokes power of 0.6 W is implemented at an average laser power of 6.3 W and a pulse repetition rate of 20 kHz. (nonlinear optical phenomena)
