Ultrabroadband TW-class Ti:sapphire laser system with adjustable central wavelength, bandwidth and multi-color operation

Christoph Peter Hauri

We demonstrate a versatile tunable and highly stable ultrabroadband Ti:sapphire chirped pulse amplification system with a compressed pulse energy of 20 mJ at 100 Hz repetition rate. High power Ti: Sa systems in principle do not offer wavelength tunability ...

Chirped pulses sum frequency generation for deep - UV picosecond pulse shaping

Christoph Peter Hauri

We show by experiments and simulations that properly chirped laser pulses enable efficient and broadband sum frequency generation in nonlinear crystals. We achieved high energy, picosecond deep-UV pulses with spectral width one order of magnitude greater t ...

Strong-field single-cycle THz pulses generated in an organic crystal

Christoph Peter Hauri, Fernando Ardana Lamas

We present high-power single-cycle carrier-envelope phase locked THz pulses at a central frequency of 2.1 THz with MV/cm electric field strengths and magnetic field strengths beyond 0.3 T. The THz radiation is generated by optical rectification in an organ ...

Air nonlinear dynamics initiated by ultra-intense lambda-cubic terahertz pulses

Christoph Peter Hauri

We report on the measurement of the instantaneous Kerr nonlinearity and the retarded alignment of air molecules CO2, N-2, and O-2 triggered by an intense, lambda-cubic terahertz pulse, a diffraction-and transform-limited single-cycle pulse. The strong-fiel ...

A scheme for a shot-to-shot, femtosecond-resolved pulse length and arrival time measurement of free electron laser x-ray pulses that overcomes the time jitter problem between the FEL and the laser

Christoph Peter Hauri, Fernando Ardana Lamas, Rasmus Ischebeck, Ishkhan Gorgisyan

The recent entry of X-ray free electron lasers (FELs) to all fields of physics has created an enormous need, both from scientists and operators, for better characterization of the beam created by these facilities. Of particular interest is the measurement ...

Sub-femtosecond precision measurement of relative X-ray arrival time for free-electron lasers

Christoph Peter Hauri, Christoph Bostedt

Today's brightest coherent X-ray sources, X-ray free-electron lasers, produce ultrafast X-ray pulses for which full-width at half-maximum durations as short as 3 fs have been measured(1). There has been a marked increase in the popularity of such short pul ...
