"Generation of Three-cycle, 16 TW Light Pulses by use of Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplification" Daniel Herrmann , Laszlo Veisz, Raphael Tautz, Alexander Buck, Franz Tavella, Karl Schmid, Vladimir Pervak, Michael Scharrer, Philip Russell and Ferenc KrauszThe European Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO_E) 2009 paper: CG1_3 Abstract: We report the first generation of three-cycle, 8 fs, 125 mJ optical pulses in a noncollinear optical parametric chirped-pulse amplifier (NOPCPA) operating at 805 nm central wavelength. These 16 TW laser pulses are compressed to within 5% of their Fourier limit. These parameters come in combination with an amplified pulse contrast-ratio of 10-5 at t=±5ps and >10-7 at t<-5ps limited by the detection barrier. Numerical split-step simulations are performed to investigate potential improvements for the NOPCPA laser system.
