Abstract:
|
Many experimental investigations demand synchronized
pulses at various wavelengths, ideally with very short pulse
duration and high repetition rate. Here we describe a femtosecond
multi-color optical parametric chirped pulse amplifier
(OPCPA) with simultaneous outputs from the deep-UV to
the mid-IR with optical synchronization. The high repetition
rate of 160 kHz is well suited to compensate for low interaction
probability or low cross section in strong-field interactions.
Our source features high peak powers in the tens
to hundreds of MW regime with pulse durations below
110 fs, which is ideal for pump-probe experiments of nonlinear
and strong-field physics. We demonstrate its utility by
strong-field ionization experiments of xenon in the near- to
mid-IR. |
