Abstract

Recently Perry et al.¹ showed that self-phase modulation (SPM) in chirped- pulse amplification (CPA) lasers can degrade the quality of the compressed pulse. Even in the absence of spectral broadening, a B-integral of ~1 can produce uncompressible wings; this result could be very significant for experiments that require clean, high-contrast pulses.
