Generation and Parametric Amplification of Few‐Cycle Light Pulses at Relativistic Intensities

Generation and Parametric Amplification of Few‐Cycle Light Pulses at Relativistic Intensities

This book reports on the development of a pioneering light source architecture of the so-called Petawatt Field Synthesizer (PFS) system, which is based on short-pulse pumped, optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA), driven by a homemade, 1-ps diode-pumped Yb:YAG. At a few-cycle pulse...
