Journal ArticleDOI
Compression of amplified chirped optical pulses
Donna Strickland,Gerard Mourou +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the amplification and subsequent recompression of optical chirped pulses were demonstrated using a system which produces 1.06 μm laser pulses with pulse widths of 2 ps and energies at the millijoule level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of ultrahigh peak power pulses by chirped pulse amplification
TL;DR: In this article, a table-top-size Nd:glass amplifier was used to amplify single picosecond pulses to the terawatt level by using the technique of chirped pulse amplification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tunneling ionization of noble gases in a high-intensity laser field.
TL;DR: This work represents the first study of the production of highly ionized noble-gas ions done exclusively in the tunneling regime and it is found in this regime that the ionization at a given intensity depends on both the Ionization potential and the charge state of the species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser ionization of noble gases by Coulomb-barrier suppression
TL;DR: In this article, a 1.053-μm, 1-psec Nd:glass laser was used to study the ionization of noble gases in the tunneling regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Femtosecond laser pulse shaping by use of microsecond radio-frequency pulses
TL;DR: A new pulse-shaping technique, using an acousto-optic modulator as a spatial modulator in a zero-dispersion delay line that simplifies optical alignment and dramatically improves update rates.
