Abstract :
The influence of higher-order spectral phase on the quality of recompressed parabolic pulses was studied. Using a hybrid prisms-gratings compressor to optimize the third-order spectral phase, an improvement of the temporal Strehl ratio, time-bandwidth product, and pulse width were shown.
