Q-switched lasers are compact, cost-effective, and highly pulse energy-scalable sources for nanosecond-scale laser pulses. The technology has been developed for many decades and is widely used in scientific, industrial and medical…
Affine frequency division multiplexing (AFDM) has recently emerged as a promising waveform for doubly-selective channles [1],[2], owing to its ability to fully exploit time-frequency diversity through appropriate tuning of the chirp-rate…
We demonstrate an efficient hybrid-scheme for nonlinear pulse compression of high-power thin-disk oscillator pulses to the sub-10 fs regime. The output of a home-built, 16 MHz, 84 W, 220 fs Yb:YAG thin-disk oscillator at 1030 nm is first…
We describe a simple and fast technique to perform ultrasound differential phase contrast (DPC) imaging in arbitrarily thick scattering media. Though configured in a reflection geometry, DPC is based on transmission imaging and is a direct…
Over the past years, ultrafast lasers with average powers in the 100 W range have become a mature technology, with a multitude of applications in science and technology. Nonlinear temporal compression of these lasers to few- or even…
It is shown that well collimated mono-energetic ion beams with a large particle number can be generated in the hole-boring radiation pressure acceleration regime by using an elliptically polarized laser pulse with appropriate theoretically…
A novel optical layout for a multi-pass resonator is presented paving the way for pulse energy scaling of mode-locked thin-disk lasers. The multi-pass resonator we are proposing consists of a concatenation of nearly identical optical…
Controlling the coherent optical response of inhomogeneous ensembles is a key challenge in advancing light-matter interaction engineering. We present a comparative study of two spectral tailoring approaches using two-dimensional coherent…
Applications of terawatt-class lasers can enormously benefit from pulse trains with kHz repetition rates. The associated unprecedented combinations of peak and average powers require the development of new concepts for scalable ultrashort…
With increasing laser peak power, the generation and manipulation of high-power laser pulses becomes a growing challenge for conventional solid-state optics due to their limited damage threshold. As a result, plasma-based optical components…
We present a detailed numerical study of ultrashort pulse compression using a three-stage hybrid all-bulk multipass cell scheme. By operating in the enhanced frequency chirp regime, we achieve the compression of pulses from around 180 fs to…
We describe the measurements to control the morphology and hence the characteristics of a picosecond laser produced chromium plasma plume upon double-pulse (DP) irradiation compared to its single-pulse (SP) counterpart. DP schemes are…
We report supercontinuum generation and pulse compression in two stacked multipass cells based on dielectric mirrors. The 230 fs pulses at 1 MHz containing 12 $\mu$J were compressed by factor 33 down to 7 fs, corresponding to 1.0 GW peak…
We study both numerically and experimentally the use of two third-order nonlinear temporal filtering techniques, namely nonlinear ellipse rotation (NER) and cross-polarized wave (XPW) generation, for spatio-temporal cleaning of mJ energy 30…
We propose a new method for laser pulse compression that uses the spatially varying dispersion of a plasma plume with a density gradient. This novel scheme can be used to compress ultrahigh power lasers. A long, negatively…
Advancing ultrafast high-repetition-rate lasers to shortest pulse durations comprising only a few optical cycles while pushing their energy into the multi-millijoule regime opens a route towards terawatt-class peak powers at unprecedented…
We demonstrate compression and shaping of few cycle pulses from a high average power Ytterbium laser system. The pulses from a commercial 20 W, 100 kHz Yb laser system are spectrally broadened in two-stages using gas-filled, stretched…
Scattering of ultraintense short laser pulses off relativistic electrons allows one to generate a large number of X- or $\gamma$-ray photons with the expense of the spectral width---temporal pulsing of the laser inevitable leads to…
The explosive growth of multi-source multimedia data has significantly increased the demands for transmission and storage, placing substantial pressure on bandwidth and storage infrastructures. While Autoregressive Compression Models (ACMs)…
