Abstract
Several concepts for the compression of ultrashort laser pulses to the few-cycle regime were recently proposed [1,2]. Most promising among these are filamentation in gases as well as nonlinear propagation inside gas-filled hollow-core fibres. However, both methods are limited in terms of the accessible output pulse energy (typically below ~1 mJ), either by the onset of multiple filamentation for the first case or damage of the fibre for the latter.
