Abstract
Generation of high energy ultra-short pulses capable of peak power as high as 100 TW with a reasonably high repetition rate1 for high intensity demanding X rays and plasma experiments comes up against many technical and physical limitations such as optical damages, non-linear and thermal unwanted effects, spectral and spatial distortions mainly due to amplification.
