Spatiotemporal focusing of single-cycle light pulses
We investigate experimentally and numerically the properties of single-cycle terahertz pulses propagating through a focus. The experimental data clearly show changes in pulse shape resulting from the Gouy phase shift and apparent superluminal pulse propagation. The pulses are also considerably distorted by diffraction effects. A solution of the time-domain diffraction integral is necessary to e...
متن کاملGeneration of few-cycle terawatt light pulses using optical parametric chirped pulse amplification.
We demonstrate the generation of 9.8+/-0.3 fs laser pulses with a peak power exceeding one terawatt at 30 Hz repetition rate, using optical parametric chirped pulse amplification. The amplifier is pumped by 140 mJ, 60 ps pulses at 532 nm, and amplifies seed pulses from a Ti:Sapphire oscillator to 23 mJ/pulse, resulting in 10.5 mJ/pulse after compression while amplified fluorescence is kept belo...
متن کاملSubcycle controlled charge-directed reactivity with few-cycle midinfrared pulses.
The steering of electron motion in molecules is accessible with waveform-controlled few-cycle laser light and may control the outcome of light-induced chemical reactions. An optical cycle of light, however, is much shorter than the duration of the fastest dissociation reactions, severely limiting the degree of control that can be achieved. To overcome this limitation, we extended the control me...
متن کاملToward Terawatt-Peak-Power Single-Cycle Infrared Fields
1.55-μm pulses with up to 12.5-mJ energy are generated from a four-stage KTPOPCPA and recompressed to 79 fs. By focusing these pulses into a noble-gas cell, we demonstrate single 4-mJ supercontinuum filaments supporting 8-fs pulses. ©2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (320.7110) Ultrafast nonlinear optics; (190.4970) Parametric oscillators and amplifiers.

متن کاملFree-Space Optics Wavelength Selection: 10 μ Versus Shorter Wavelengths
This paper is written in response to many inquiries about 10 μ Free-Space Optics (FSO) performance compared to shorter wavelengths. The increasing interest in better understanding FSO weather effects is the result of carrier requests as well as recent progress in analyzing fog effects on FSO signal propagation. Extensive studies in modeling fog and simulating FSO attenuations revealed the compl...
