摘要：

We generate self-phase-stabilized pulses by difference-frequency generation of a hollow-fibre broadened supercontinuum followed by two-stage optical parametric amplification. This system allows the production of broadband pulses widely tuneable in the near-IR wavelength region. Energies up to 0.2 mJ with 15 fs pulse width are demonstrated. These characteristics make this source suitable as a driver for attosecond pulse generation.
