[1] For 500 fs input pulses
Based on gas-filled multipass cells and chirped-mirrors-based temporal re-compression, the Herz series is a nonlinear compression scheme perfectly suited to shorten the pulse duration of our Dira series lasers to sub-40 fs.
Thanks to the robustness, wide adaptability and reliability of these compression scheme, the portfolio of this products is suitable for different repetition rates, pulse energies and driving sources. Customized solutions for different driving lasers and special configurations up to 400 mJ are available upon request.
High average power
Up to 1 kW at 1 kHz repetition rate
High efficiency
More than 95 % optical efficiency
Short pulse duration
Pulse durations < 40 fs with best output quality and stability
High flexibility
Variable pulse duration with Dira series and different input sources on request
Applications
Secondary radiation generation
Femtosecond pulses at high intensity and repetition rate are the next generation of sources for: X-rays via Compton scattering, UV light via high harmonic generation and THz radiation via air filamentation.
Ultrafast (time-resolved) spectroscopy
Light-matter interaction can be investigated at few-femtosecond time scale and with high resolution with ultrashort pulses at high repetition rate.
Plasma acceleration
The combination of Terawatt intensities and kilohertz repetition rate can open new frontiers at electron and ions accelerators.
