摘要：
A tabletop Nd:phosphate glass laser system capable of producing a focused intensity in excess of 10(18) W/cm2 is described. Optimization of chirped-pulse amplification, including spectral shaping and careful attention to beam quality, produces a transform-limited, 800-fs compressed pulse with a peak power of > 10 TW in a near-diffraction-limited spatially uniform beam.
