Research Project Outline
The optical technology that brings out the ultimate capabilities of ultra-short-pulse intense lasers enables us to precisely control a variety of laser-matter interactions. We are developing a few cycle laser system of -30-TW peak power using the optical parametric amplification pumped by a laser diodepumped solid state laser. We will release this laser to many applications adopting the spatiotemporal phase control and spatial polarization control. We aim to provide the technological base of "adaptive power photonics" for innovative applications of high-power lasers.
