Towards 10 TW few-cycle infrared pulses using frequency domain optical parametric amplification (FOPA)

Using a non-collinear FOPA, a source delivering 1.8 μm, 30 mJ, 13 fs laser pulses is demonstrated. This is the first step towards 100 mJ for ~10 TW. This laser opens the way for high brightness soft X-ray attosecond pulses.
