A spatial light modulator based on fused-silica plates for adaptive feedback control of intense femtosecond laser pulses.
A novel spatial light modulator (SLM) made of an array of fused-silica plates was developed for the purpose of feedback control for intense femtosecond laser pulses over a wide spectral range. Dispersion compensation for 20-fs pulses from a Ti:sapphire oscillator was successfully demonstrated using the SLM with an adaptive feedback control system. The SLM was also applied to the output pulses from a Ti:sapphire amplifier for compensation of material.
