Efficient High-Power Ultrashort Pulse Compression in Self-Defocusing Bulk Media

Abstract Peak and average power scalability is the key feature of advancing femtosecond laser technology. Today, near-infrared light sources are capable of providing hundreds of Watts of average power. These sources, however, scarcely deliver pulses shorter than 100 fs which are, for instance, highl...
