Fiber laser-based euv-lithography
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for performing lithography operation using a fiber laser and adaptive optics is described. But this method is not suitable for the use of a plasma as a source of EUV radiation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present measurement of characteristic Kα emission from Mo, Ag, and La targets irradiated by a 60 fs, 600 mJ, 10 Hz Ti:sapphire laser pulse at 1017-1019 W/cm2.

Short pulse amplification in tunable solid state materials
Abstract: We describe our work on the amplification of short pulses in tunable solid state materials; specifically alexandrite and Ti:sapphire. Our goal is to amplify femtosecond range pulses to the joule level in a table top size laser. We will describe our results which show that such a laser is now feasible.© (1990) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Large temporal stretching of ultrashort pulses.
TL;DR: This work demonstrates the stretching of 100- fs pulses by a factor of 12,000, using standard-size optical elements, and amplifies and recompressed these stretched pulses to their initial duration.
