We present a comprehensive study of laser pulse amplification with respect to operation regimes, gain dynamics, and highly stable operation points of Ho:YLF regenerative amplifiers (RAs). The findings are expected to be more generic than…

We report on energy scaling of a 2.08-{\mu}m wavelength regenerative amplifier (RA) system based on the broadband gain material Ho:CaAlGdO4 (CALGO) to multi-mJ pulse energy at kHz repetition rates. Compared to previous reports, energy…

This research examines the stability of crossed-field amplifiers (CFAs) and characterizes their different modes of operation: amplification, driven oscillation, and self-excited oscillation. The CFA used in this paper is the Recirculating…

Dispersive readouts for superconducting qubits have the advantage of speed and minimal invasiveness. We have developed such an amplifier, the Cavity Bifurcation Amplifier (CBA) [10], and applied it to the readout of the quantronium qubit…

A high repetition rate, picosecond THz parametric amplifier (TPA) with a LiNbO3 (LN) crystal has been demonstrated in this work. At 10 kHz repetition rate, a peak power of 200 W and an average power of 12 {\mu}W have been obtained over a…

We have constructed a new type of amplifier whose primary purpose is the readout of superconducting quantum bits. It is based on the transition of an RF-driven Josephson junction between two distinct oscillation states near a dynamical…

Polarization maintaining (PM), all-fiber amplifiers offer the benefits of alignment free and environmentally stable operation. To achieve high output powers, particularly in pulsed operation, it is necessary to balance the need to reduce…

We demonstrate a single-stage, multipass Ti:sapphire amplifier capable of delivering sub-13 fs, 3.2 mJ pulses at 1 kHz repetition rate. Gaussian filters are used to suppress the gain-narrowing effect, thereby enabling the achievement of an…

We demonstrate a compact source of energetic and phase-locked multi-terahertz pulses at a repetition rate of 190 kHz. Difference frequency mixing of the fundamental output of an Yb:KGW amplifier with the idler of an optical parametric…

Varying one of the governing parameters of a dynamical system may lead to a critical transition, where the new stable state is undesirable. In some cases, there is only a limited range of the bifurcation parameter that corresponds to that…

Filamentation has extensively been explored and is well understood at repetition rates <1 kHz due to the typical availability of multi-mJ laser systems at a moderate average power. The advent of high-power Yb-lasers opened new possibilities…

We report on frequency tripling of high energy, high repetition rate ns pulses from a cryogenically gas cooled multi-slab Yb:YAG laser system Bivoj/DiPOLE, using a type-I phase matched LBO crystal for second harmonic generation and type-II…

We present a bifurcation analysis of a normal form for travelling waves in one-dimensional excitable media. The normal form which has been recently proposed on phenomenological grounds is given in form of a differential delay equation. The…

High-order frequency locking phenomena were recently observed using semiconductor lasers subject to large delayed feedbacks [B. Tykalewicz, et al., Opt. Express 24, 4239 (2016); B. Kelleher, et al., Chaos 27, 114325 (2017)]. Specifically,…

We present a Ho:YLF Chirped-Pulse Amplification (CPA) laser for pumping a longwave infrared Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplifier (OPCPA) at a 1 kHz repetition rate. By utilizing a Ti:Sapphire laser as a frontend, 5-{\mu}J seed pulses…

A laser was designed and constructed with the goal of producing ultra-short pulses at a high repetition rate as needed for certain applications of multi-photon microscopy. With pure prism-based dispersion compensation repetition rates of up…

Light from a Tm,Ho:YLF laser operating at 2051 nm is frequency doubled then coupled into a high Fabry-Perot cavity with manufacturer quoted finesse in excess of 300,000. The frequency of the laser is stabilized using the Pound-Drever-Hall…

This paper presents a general framework to derive the weakly nonlinear stability near a Hopf bifurcation in a special class of multi-scale reaction-diffusion equations. The main focus is on how the linearity and nonlinearity of the fast…

We report on the design and whole characterization of low-noise and affordable-cost Yb-doped double-clad fiber amplifiers operating at room temperature in the near-infrared spectral region at pulse repetition rate of 160 MHz. Two different…

The development of high-energy, high-power, multi-octave light-transients is currently subject of intense research driven by emerging applications in attosecond spectroscopy and coherent control. We report on a phase-stable, multi-octave…
