Amplification-free GW-level, 150 W, 14 MHz, and 8 fs, thin-disk laser oscillator

We report an amplification-free thin-disk laser oscillatory system delivering 0.9 GW peak power. The 120 fs pulses at 14 MHz containing 12.8 $μ$J delivered by thin-disk oscillator were compressed by factor 15 down to 8.0 fs with 148 W average output power and 82 % overall efficiency. Additionally, we showed that even a sub-two-cycle operation with 6.2 fs can be reached with this technology. The system will be a crucial part of the XUV frequency comb being developed and a unique high-repetition rate driver for attosecond pulse generation.

White Light Generation and Few Cycle Pulse Compression in Cascaded Multipass Cells

We report supercontinuum generation and pulse compression in two stacked multipass cells based on dielectric mirrors. The 230 fs pulses at 1 MHz containing 12 $μ$J were compressed by factor 33 down to 7 fs, corresponding to 1.0 GW peak power and overall transmission of 84 %. The source is particularly interesting for such applications as time-resolved ARPES, photoemission electron microscopy, and nonlinear spectroscopy.

110 MW Thin-Disk Oscillator

A compact Kerr-lens mode-locked thin-disk oscillator delivering 110 MW output peak power, the highest among all oscillators, is reported. A pulse train with a repetition rate of 14 MHz carries 115 fs long, 14.4 uJ pulses resulting in 202 W of average power. This compact, simple, and stable oscillator is a suitable driver and an important milestone for further high harmonics generation and the development of extreme ultraviolet transportable frequency comb sources.
