A source of ultrashort pulses of light in the 2 {\mu}m region was constructed using supercontinuum broadening from an erbium mode-locked laser. The output spectrum spanned 1000 nm to 2200 nm with an average power of 250 mW. A pulse width of…
A setup of a unique x-ray source is put forward employing a relativistic electron beam interacting with two counter-propagating laser pulses in the nonlinear few-photon regime. In contrast to Compton scattering sources, the envisaged x-ray…
The generation of intense, femtosecond-scale X-ray pulses is crucial for probing matter under extreme temporal and field conditions. Current chirped-pulse amplification (CPA) techniques in free-electron lasers (FELs), however, face…
A method for the generation of ultrarelativistic electron beams with high spin polarization is put forward, where a tightly-focused linearly-polarized ultraintense laser pulse interacts with a nonprepolarized transverse-size-tailored solid…
High-harmonic upconversion driven by a mid-infrared femtosecond laser can generate coherent soft X-ray beams in a tabletop-scale setup. Here, we report on a compact ytterbium-pumped optical parametric chirped pulse amplifier (OPCPA) laser…
We report on the first absorption experiments of sub-10 fs high-contrast Ti:Sa laser pulses incident on solid targets. The very good contrast of the laser pulse assures the formation of a very small pre-plasma and the pulse interacts with…
We report the LWFA driven X-ray sources development at ELI beamlines. ELI Gammatron beamline provides X-ray pulses of energies from 1-100 keV in betatron scheme, and up to a MeV in Compton scheme. A state-of-the-art Ti:Sa diode-pumped HAPLS…
Ultrafast lasers with simultaneously high average and peak power have become indispensable for driving a multitude of applications, including high-harmonic generation, strong-field physics, and particle source applications. Both parametric…

Single-cycle optical pulses offer a strong carrier-envelope-offset (CEO) dependent electric field and the highest peak intensity for a given pulse energy. Absence of demonstrated GHz single-cycle lasers constrains exploration of…
We show the feasibility of generating X-ray pulses in the 4 to 8 keV fundamental photon energy range with 0.65 TW peak power, 15 fs pulse duration, $9\times10^{-5}$ bandwidth, using the LCLS-II copper linac and hard X-ray (HXR) undulator.…
We compared the performance of two post-compression techniques, a gas-filled hollow-core fiber (HCF) and a multi-pass cell (MPC), using a high-power ytterbium-doped fiber laser. The HCF produced 27 fs pulses from 230 fs inputs at >50%…
Ultrafast laser pulses that are both tunable in wavelength and very short in duration are essential tools in fields ranging from biomedical imaging to ultrafast spectroscopy. While resonant dispersive-wave emission in gas-filled hollow-core…
A laser source delivering ultrashort pulses (50-100 fs) tunable from 820 nm to 1200 nm has been developed. It is based on the filtering of a continuum in the Fourier plane of a zero dispersion line without a phase compensator. We have also…
Few-cycle pulses present an essential tool to track ultrafast dynamics in matter and drive strong field effects. To address photon-hungry applications, high average power lasers are used which, however, cannot directly provide sub-100 fs…
