Self-phase modulation in chirped-pulse amplification.
The effect of self-phase modulation in chirped-pulse amplification is investigated. A numerical model is used to predict the effects of phase modulation on pulse recompression, and experimental results are presented that agree well with the calculations. We show that even moderate self-phase modulation can significantly distort the recompressed pulse after amplification, thereby reducing the pe...
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 کاملChirped pulse Raman amplification in plasma
Raman amplification in plasma has been proposed to be a promising method of amplifying short radiation pulses. Here, we investigate chirped pulse Raman amplification (CPRA) where the pump pulse is chirped and leads to spatiotemporal distributed gain, which exhibits superradiant scaling in the linear regime, usually associated with the nonlinear pump depletion and Compton amplification regimes. ...
متن کاملRemoving cross-phase modulation from midinfrared chirped-pulse upconversion spectra.
We observe that narrow spectral features in mid-infrared spectra obtained by chirped-pulse up-conversion are strongly distorted by cross-phase modulation between the mid-infrared field and the chirped pulse. We discuss the consequences of this effect on spectral resolution, and introduce a correction method that recovers masked lines. This simple correction can be applied either when the upconv...
متن کاملDesign constraints of optical parametric chirped pulse amplification based on chirped quasi-phase-matching gratings.
Chirped quasi-phase-matching (QPM) gratings offer efficient, ultra-broadband optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) in the mid-infrared as well as other spectral regions. Only recently, however, has this potential begun to be realized [1]. In this paper, we study the design of chirped QPM-based OPCPA in detail, revealing several important constraints which must be accounted for ...
