摘要
A high-energy, high-beam-quality, high-contrast picosecond optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (ps-OPCPA) laser system was demonstrated. The pulse from a femtosecond oscillator was stretched to 4 ps, after which it was amplified from 140 pJ to 600 mu J by an 8 ps/6 mJ pump laser in two non-collinear OPCPA stages. The total gain was >10(6), and the root mean square of the energy stability of the laser system was 1.6% in 10 h. The contrasts of the solid and fiber mode-locked femtosecond oscillator-seeded ps-OPCPA systems were compared, and a signal-to-noise ratio of >10(11) was achieved. Using this system, the contrast of the front end in high-power picosecond petawatt laser facility was improved by similar to 40 dB to >10(11), beyond similar to 200 ps ahead of the main pulse with an output level of 60 mJ.
