We developed a high-energy, waveform-stabilized laser source, crucial for advanced spectroscopy. This new technology enables microjoule pulse energies, significantly enhancing studies of electronic structure and dynamics.

Area of Science:

  • Laser physics and photonics
  • Ultrafast science
  • Materials science

Background:

  • Waveform-stabilized laser pulses are essential for frequency-comb and attosecond spectroscopy.
  • Current laser sources deliver insufficient nanojoule pulse energies for many applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a scalable waveform-stabilized light source with microjoule energy levels.
  • To enable advanced spectroscopic applications requiring higher pulse energies.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a diode-pumped Kerr-lens-mode-locked Yb:YAG thin-disk laser.
  • Employed extracavity pulse compression to achieve few-cycle pulses.

Main Results:

  • Generated waveform-stabilized few-cycle pulses (7.7 fs, 2.2 cycles) with 0.15 μJ pulse energy and 6 W average power.

  • Demonstrated scalability to microjoule pulse energies and near-gigawatt peak powers.

    • Conclusions:

    • The developed laser source is scalable to high pulse energies at megahertz repetition rates.
    • This technology paves the way for generating high-repetition-rate attosecond pulses.
    • Potential for use as a primary source for high-power mid-infrared and vacuum UV frequency combs.
