摘要
The peak power and temporal intensity contrast of powerful femtosecond laser pulses were enhanced simultaneously by broadening the pulse spectrum in transparent dielectrics due to self-phase modulation and subsequent reflection from chirping mirrors with a symmetrical dip in the reflection coefficient in the center of the broadened spectrum. This dip provides almost zero reflection of the pulse pedestal, only slightly distorting the pulse itself. (C) 2021 Optical Society of America
