Sub-2-Cycle, Terawatt Pulses via Double-Stage Multi-Pass Cell Compression of an Yb Laser
Victor Koltalo, Jaismeen Kaur, Louis Daniault +8
We report a terawatt-class, sub-2-cycle post-compressed Yb-based laser system operating at kHz repetition rate. 18 mJ, 400 fs pulses delivered at 1 kHz by a commercial Yb:YAG laser…

TW-class sub-2-cycle post-compression of Ti:Sapphire laser pulses in a gas-filled multipass cell
Louis Daniault, Jaismeen Kaur, Geoffrey Gallé +3
We report on the nonlinear temporal post-compression of 7 mJ sub-40 fs pulses from a commercial kHz Ti:Sapphire laser down to a record 4 fs duration (1.5 optical cycle) in a compac…

Single-stage few-cycle nonlinear compression of milliJoule energy Ti:Sa femtosecond pulses in a multipass cell
Louis Daniault, Zhao Cheng, Jaismeen Kaur +7
We report on the nonlinear temporal compression of mJ energy pulses from a Ti:Sa chirped pulse amplifier system in a multipass cell filled with argon. The pulses are compressed fro…
