Abstract

We report on the nonlinear temporal compression of mJ energy pulses from a Ti:Sa chirped pulse amplifier system in a multipass cell filled with argon. The pulses are compressed from 30 fs down to 5.3 fs, corresponding to two optical cycles. The post-compressed beam exhibits excellent spatial quality and homogeneity. These results provide guidelines for optimizing the compressed pulse quality and further scaling of multipass-cell-based post-compression down to the single-cycle regime.

NameDescription
Visualization 1       On-axis temporal and spectral pulse profiles evolutions in the first pass of the multipass cell at 400 mbar. Self-steepening has little impact on the temporal pulse properties.
Visualization 2       On-axis temporal and spectral pulse profiles evolutions in the first pass of the multipass cell at 450 mbar. Self-steepening starts to slightly distort the temporal pulse properties.
Visualization 3       On-axis temporal and spectral pulse profiles evolutions in the first pass of the multipass cell at 500 mbar. Self-steepening strongly distorts the temporal pulse properties.
