Abstract:
We demonstrate an efficient broadband difference-frequency converter emitting carrier-envelope-offsetfree seed pulses for chirped-pulse parametric amplification and pumped by a monolithic femtosecond Yb-doped fiber amplifier that simultaneously provides passive optical synchronization for an OPCPA pump pulse source.
