Petawatt Lasers Based On Hybrid, OPCPA-Nd:glass Amplification

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A Petawatt laser [1] based on hybrid optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) and mixed Nd:glass has been demonstrated [2]. This concept enables peak powers which can be scaled significantly beyond one petawatt. Higher power lasers enable access to unprecedented scientific research in the studies of high intensity physics. In this paper we discuss the laser, the potential of scaling to higher peak power and the first experiments.
