Grism based stretcher/compressor system for amplified, femtosecond kilohertz lasers

  • Conference paper
Book cover Ultrafast Phenomena XV

Abstract

We demonstrate a simple and efficient grism based stretcher/compression system. 36 fs, ∼300 µJ pulses are generated at 5–15 kHz by using this unique grism stretcher/material compressor in a Ti:sapphire amplifier system based on downchirped pulse amplification.
