Abstract
A compact all-solid-state femtosecond Ti:sapphire oscillator-amplifier system using no grating-based pulse stretcher produces 20-fs, 1.5-mJ pulses at a 1-kHz repetition rate. The pulses are subsequently compres sed in a hollow-fiber chirped-mirror compressor. The system delivers b andwidth-limited 5-fs, 0.5-mJ pulses at 780 nm in a diffraction-limite d beam.
