Angularly-dispersed optical parametric amplification of optical pulses with one-octave bandwidth toward monocycle regime.
We demonstrated experimentally the generation of 65-microJ, 5.8-fs optical pulses with an ultrabroad bandwidth (540-1000 nm) by the use of a double-pass angularly-dispersed non-collinear optical parametric amplifier. We also confirmed up to the 95-microJ output from the amplifier when seed pulses were not pre-compensated for. Furthermore, we confirmed that the broadband pump pulses brought in t...
متن کاملUltrabroadband noncollinear optical parametric amplification with LBO crystal.
Ultrabroadband visible noncollinear optical parametric amplification (NOPA) was achieved in an LBO crystal, with a continuum seed pulse generated from a sapphire plate. The spectral bandwidth of the amplified visible pulse was about 200 nm, which can support sub-5 fs pulse amplification. An amplified output of 0.21 microJ with an average gain of about 210 was achieved. This provides, to the bes...
متن کاملNoncollinear Phase Matching in Optical Parametric Chirped-Pulse Amplification
Optical parametric chirped pulse amplication (OPCPA) is a method used to generate high-powered laser pulses. In this process, energy fiom a "pump" pulse is used to amplify a signal "seed" pulse. A computer program based on an analytical model was written and used to demonstrate the influence of noncollinearity, a condition in which the pump and seed are not parallel, and crystal tilt on the sig...
متن کاملBroadband light generation by noncollinear parametric downconversion.
Broadband light generation is demonstrated by noncollinear spontaneous parametric downconversion with a cw pump laser. By use of a suitable noncollinear phase-matching geometry and a tightly focused pump beam, downconverted signals that feature a bell-shaped spectral distribution with a bandwidth approaching 200 nm are obtained. As an application of the generated broadband light, submicrometer ...
متن کاملHigh-repetition-rate near-infrared noncollinear ultrabroadband optical parametric amplification in KTiOPO4.
We report efficient noncollinear optical parametric amplification (NOPA) of ultrabroadband near-IR pulses tunable in the 1.1-1.5 μm range at a repetition rate of 250 kHz. Improved generation of smooth near-IR continua (extending over ~1.0-1.6 μm) at 250 kHz was achieved by weakly focusing ~20% of the 1 W driving laser beam into a sapphire plate with longer focal length lenses than previously re...
