Pulse-front matched ultra-broadband optical parametric chirped pulse amplifier for sub-12 fs pulse generation
用于产生亚12fs脉冲的脉冲波前匹配的超宽带光学参量啁啾脉冲放大器

We propose a LBO-based ultra-broadband chirped pulse optical parametric amplifier employing pulse-front-matching to yield transform-limited sub-12-fs pulses. Measurement of the maximum possible gain bandwidth for the LBO-based OPCPA demonstrates more than 60nm gain bandwidth FWHM. For the generation of TL pulses by the use of this OPCPA, a suitable combination of OPCPA and PFM is first presented. The PFM pump geometry realizes tilt-free signal amplification, and permits this OPCPA to generate TL sub-12-fs pulses.
