Post-compression of a Q-switched laser in a glass-rod multi-pass cell
Peer Biesterfeld, Arthur Schönberg, Marc Seitz +14
Q-switched lasers are compact, cost-effective, and highly pulse energy-scalable sources for nanosecond-scale laser pulses. The technology has been developed for many decades and is…

Towards direct nonlinear compression of energetic sub-nanosecond pulses to the ultrafast regime
Gaspard Beaufort, Nayla Jimenez, Gunnar Arisholm +5
Applications of terawatt-class lasers can enormously benefit from pulse trains with kHz repetition rates. The associated unprecedented combinations of peak and average powers requi…
