Abstract
Few-cycle laser pulses at a high repetition rate with a stable carrier-envelope phase are required for next-generation attosecond time-resolved spectroscopies. One way to generate these pulses is the nonlinear compression of laser pulses via gas-filled hollow-core fibers. Recently, an alternative approach based on multi-pass cells (MPCs) has been shown to be very efficient for post-compression of turn-key, industrial-grade, high average power Yb-doped solid-state laser amplifiers. However, to expand the system for exploring strong-field laser applications, its carrier-envelope phase stability needs to be demonstrated in the compressed pulses. In this Letter, we present the generation of carrier-envelope phase-stabilized 40 fs pulses with 380 μJ energy at 50 kHz by compressing the output of a Yb:KGW amplifier in a gas-filled MPC. Comparable short-term carrier-envelope phase errors of 412 and 435 mrad root mean square were observed from the amplifier and MPC, respectively, indicating that the phase stability of the amplified pulses is well-maintained during pulse compression in the MPC.
