Abstract

We fully characterize a high-peak-power, ultrashort laser pulse in a Ti:sapphire chirped-pulse amplification laser system. The contrast, temporal, and spectral phases of the 20-fs pulse are determined by using high-dynamic-range cross-correlation and frequency-resolved optical gating techniques. Minimization of the total phase error can be achieved by balancing the phase terms of the group delay dispersion and quartic. The laser system is currently being applied to perform high-field atomic ionization experiments at 1020 W/cm2.
