Coherently tiled Ti:sapphire laser amplification: a way to break the 10 petawatt limit on current ultraintense lasers

13 October 2024 • 15:30 - 15:50 China Standard Time | Room 101A

Abstract

Here, a theoretical analysis and an experimental demonstration of high-quality laser amplification are reported. The results show that the addition of a 2 ×2 tiled-Ti:sapphire amplifier to the today’s 10 PW ultra-intense laser is a viable technique to break the 10 PW limit and increase the highest peak power recorded to few tens PW, further approaching the Exawatt-class (EW).
