Nonlinear temporal pulse cleaning techniques and application
Fig. 1. Simplified layout of a high-intensity femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser system with a double-CPA scheme.
Fig. 2. Setup of pulse cleaner based on NOPA and SHG processes.
Fig. 3. Contrast curves of the commercial CPA laser (grey curve) and the pulse cleaner based on NOPA and SHG (dark curve). The inset is the pulse duration of the cleaned pulse.
Fig. 4. Contrast curves of the high-contrast TW-level Ti:sapphire CPA laser (black curve) and the original TW-level Ti:sapphire CPA laser (grey curve). The pre-pulses are identified to be the artefacts generated by multiple reflections at the optical components in the cross-correlator and amplifiers.
