RESUMO
We experimentally demonstrate a 38-fs chirped-pulse amplified (CPA) Ti:sapphire laser system based on the power-scalable thin-disk scheme with an average output power of 1.45 W at a repetition rate of 1 kHz, corresponding to peak power of 38 GW. The beam profile close to the diffraction limit with a measured M2 value of approximately 1.1 is obtained. It demonstrates the potential for an ultra-intense laser with high beam quality compared with the conventional bulk gain amplifier. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported Ti:sapphire regenerative amplifier based on the thin-disk approach reaching 1 kHz.
