We present developement and characterization of a Herriott-style multipass cell aimed at achieving ultrashort pulses with high peak power. The setup is used as a driving laser for a high repetition rate HHG (High Harmonic Generation) source for time-resolved momentum microscopy.
The setup compresses the pulses generated by a commercial Ytterbium-based laser (Carbide, Light Conversion) with an average power of 50 W and a variable repetition rate between 100 kHz and 1 MHz. The pulses are first spectrally broadened by self-phase-modulation by passing through a non-linear χ(3) medium multiple times. Then, a pair of negative group-dispersion-delay coated mirrors compress the pulse by dispersion correction. By moving the non-linear medium within the mulitpass cell we were able to compress the pulses from 242 fs to around 45 fs for different high repetition rates while keeping a transmission of over 90 % and peak powers between 1 GW and 2 GW [1].
