Second-harmonic generation allows for coherently bridging distant regions of the optical spectrum, with applications ranging from laser technology to self-referencing of frequency combs. However, accessing the nonlinear response of a medium…
Silicon photonics lacks a second-order nonlinear optical response in general because the typical constituent materials are centro-symmetric and lack inversion symmetry, which prohibits second-order nonlinear processes such as second…
We present a laser source delivering waveform-controlled 1.5-cycle pulses that can be focused to relativistic intensity at 1 kHz repetition rate. These pulses are generated by nonlinear compression of high-temporal-contrast sub-25\,fs…
