Chirped pulses sum frequency generation for deep-UV picosecond pulse shaping

Vicario, Carlo; Trisorio, Alexandre; Arisholm, Gunnar; Hauri, Christoph P. (2012)

We show by experiments and simulations that properly chirped laser pulses enable efficient and broadband sum frequency generation in nonlinear crystals. We achieved high energy, picosecond deep-UV pulses with spectral ...
Deep-ultraviolet picosecond flat-top pulses by chirp-matched sum frequency generation

Vicario, Carlo; Trisorio, Alexandre; Arisholm, Gunnar; Hauri, Christoph P. (2012)

Picosecond, flat-top, deep-UV pulses are needed to generate high-brightness electron beams to efficiently drive x-ray free electron lasers. Current metal photocathodes have low efficiency and therefore require high-energy ...
