Description
The talk will summarize the current status of high peak power ytterbium- and thulium based fiber lasers (i.e. at 1µm and 2µm wavelength) based on coherent combination. In addition the nonlinear pulse compression to few-cycle pulses at mJ pulse energy level and high repetition rate (100kHz) as well as paths for temporal contrast enhancement will be presented. The discussion of the scaling potential towards Joule pulse energies will conclude the presentation.
