摘要
A 1-kHz, 0.66-TW Ti:sapphire laser has been developed. We obtained 21-fs, 14-mJ pulses with an extraction efficiency of 32% in the final amplifier. The dispersion through the system was successfully compensated for by insertion of a pair of prisms in a regenerative amplifier. The pulses were characterized by frequency resolved optical gating and were in good agreement with dispersion calculated by three-dimensional ray tracing. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
