10 mJ class femtosecond optical parametric amplifier for generating soft x-ray harmonics

Eiji J. Takahashi, Tsuneto Kanai, Yasuo Nabekawa, and Katsumi Midorikawa
Power scaling of an infrared (IR) parametric amplifier chain, pumped at 800 nm by a terawatt Ti:sapphire laser system has been reported. A total output energy exceeding 10 mJ with 40 fs pulse duration has been achieved in the IR region, which is the highest energy and peak power ever reported for ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 93, 041111 (2008)] published Wed Jul 30, 2008.
