Abstract :
We achieve pulse compression down to 24 fs with 1.1 mJ energy and full carrier-envelope phase (CEP) stabilisation at 1 kHz using a compressor combining prisms and chirped mirrors. We demonstrate that this hybrid compression scheme can be scaled in order to produce CEP-stabilized sub-30 fs pulses at the multi-mJ level.
