We developed a fast multichannel detection system for pump-probe spectroscopy, capable of detecting single shot super-continuum spectra at the repetition rate (10-50 kHz) of an amplified femtosecond laser system. By tandem pumping the amplifier with three ...
In a recent study, the theory of pulse generation with fiber optical parametric amplification using sinusoidal (clock) intensity modulated pump was revisited [1]. This work showed that the pulses generated through such parametric interaction exhibit a shap ...
Fused silica (a-SiO2) exposure to low-energy femtosecond laser pulses leads to interesting effects such as a local increase of etching rate and/or a local increase of refractive index. Up to now the exact modifications occurring in the glass matrix after e ...
We describe a complete technological system at Imperial College London for Attosecond Science studies. The system comprises a few-cycle, carrier envelope phase stabilized laser source which delivers sub 4 fs pulses to a vibration-isolated attosecond vacuum ...
We directly measure by femtosecond time-resolved x-ray diffraction the E-g symmetry coherent phonon excited in bismuth by a strong optical pulse. The magnitude of the E-g mode observed is 0.2 pm peak-to-peak, compared against the 2.7-pm initial displacemen ...
We present a broadband two-dimensional transient absorption setup for the UV around 300 nm with a time resolution of 150 fs. A narrowband, frequency tunable pump pulse and a broadband probe pulse are generated from the output of a noncollinear optical para ...
The anharmonic response of charge-density wave (CDW) order to strong laser-pulse perturbations in 1T-TaS2 and TbTe3 is investigated by means of multiple-pump-pulse time-resolved femtosecond optical spectroscopy. We observe remarkable anharmonic effects hit ...
We demonstrate the generation of high-energy sub-2-cycle laser pulses generated through hollow core fibre pulse compression. We demonstrate their full characterization with two independent methods. For all-optical characterization in amplitude and spectral ...
We demonstrate for the first time (to our knowledge) characterization of ultrashort IR pulses by self-referenced spectral interferometry. Both sub-55-fs pulses from 1.4 mu m to 2 mu m and broadband 2.5-cycle pulses at 1.65 mu m (13 fs FWHM) are characteriz ...
Recently, it was demonstrated that femtosecond lasers pulses with energies below the ablation threshold locally enhance the etching rate of fused silica: regions that are exposed to the laser beam are etched faster. This remarkable property has been used f ...
