Sub-10-fs pulses tunable from 480 to 980 nm from a NOPA pumped by an Yb:KGW source.

We describe two noncollinear optical parametric amplifier (NOPA) systems pumped by either the second (515 nm) or the third (343 nm) harmonic from an Yb:KGW source. Pulse durations as short as 6.8 fs are readily obtained by compression with chirped mirrors. The availability of both the second and thi...
