Abstract:
We report on an ytterbium-doped fiber based chirped-pulse amplification system delivering 100 microJ pulse energy at a repetition rate of 900 kHz, corresponding to an average power of 90 W. The emitted pulses are as short as 500 fs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest average power ever reported for high-energy femtosecond solid-state laser systems.
