Abstract
The Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplification (OPCPA) concept has been extended to the IR range to provide high power operation with large bandwidths using KTiOAsO4 in a noncollinear geometry pumping at 1053nm. The system is scaleable in power to the multiwatt range with over 50 nm in gain bandwidth with 4 GW peak power demonstrated.
