High-Contrast Frontend for Petawatt-Scale Lasers Using an Optically Synchronized Picosecond Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplification
We present a new scheme of picosecond optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) in which a Fourier-transform-limit 5.0 ps pulse is optically sheared from a single-longitudinal-mode 1064 nm CW laser. The pulse is amplified and frequency-doubled as the pump in order to maintain the pump n...
