An ultrafast optical parametric laser for driving high energy density science
This thesis describes the development of a multi-mJ, few-cycle, absolute-phase controlled laser system based on optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) operating at a kHz repetition rate. A laser system with these specifications will provide a table-top platform to enable a broad rang...
