Abstract

Optical parametric amplification of broad-band pulses in large-aperture KD*P (DKDP) crystals has been studied in experiment. A procedure of adjusting the amplifier for single-shot operation of a pump laser has been developed. Peak power of compressed signal radiation (pulse duration 45 fs at energy 9 J) was 200 TW. This considerably exceeds the record level obtained so far in lasers based on optical parametric chirp pulse amplification.
