We report pulse energy scaling enabled by the use of Laguerre-Gaussian single-vortex ($\text{LG}_{0,l}$) beams for spectral broadening in a sub-40 cm long Herriott-type bulk multi-pass cell. Beams with orders ${l= 1-3}$ are generated by a…
Self-compression of multi-millijoule femtosecond laser pulses and dramatic increase of the peak intensity are found in pressurized helium and neon within a range of intensity in which the ionization modification of the material parameters…

Multiphoton microscopes employ femtosecond lasers as light sources because the high peak power of the ultrashort pulse allows for multiphoton excitation of fluorescence in the examined sample. However, such short pulses are susceptible to…
