A concept of pulse compression in a plasma. Credit: Nature Photonics (2023). DOI: 10.1038/s41566-023-01321-x A new method of creating laser pulses, more than 1,000 times as powerful as those currently ...

Femtosecond laser pulses, with durations on the order of 10⁻¹⁵ seconds, have transformed the landscape of ultrafast optics by enabling the exploration of rapid light–matter interactions. The dynamics ...

Create shorter, more powerful laser pulses with transmission gratings from Wasatch Photonics. Our volume phase holographic (VPH) technology is exceptional for pulse compression and pulse stretching of ...

The first demonstration of the laser in 1960 was rapidly followed by the birth of a new research field: nonlinear optics. The unique coherence properties of stimulated emission, the fundamental ...
