Impure infrared vortex driven high harmonic generation
We demonstrate that high harmonic generation when driven by vortex driver contaminated with various orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes, the upconverted EUV harmonic deviates from perturbative conversion law to exhibit a spectrum of OAM orders.

Noise performances of a high-power picosecond Nd:YVO 4 oscillator
We report on an experimental investigation of the noise properties of an free-running, high-power, picosecond Nd:YVO4 oscillator pumped by a 100 W laser diode. The amplitude noise has been measured with a photodiode and an electronic spectrum analyser, and then compared with other mode-locked oscillator's noise spectrum. We show that in terms of noise properties, our powerful oscillator is comparable with low-power oscillators such like low-noise Ti:Sapphire oscillators. We also show that the frequency doubling does not affect the amplitude noise of the oscillator. High power diode pumping is then not an issue to get low-noise high-power oscillators.

Picosecond pulses of variable duration from a high-power passively mode-locked Nd:YVO_4 laser free of spatial hole burning
We report on a high-power passively mode-locked oscillator, diode-pumped, with pulse durations adjustable between and . The duration tunability was obtained by varying the output coupler (OC) transmission while avoiding resorting to spatial hole burning (SHB) for pulse shortening. At a repetition rate of and for an output power ranging from , we produced SHB-free -long pulses. Within this range of power, these are the shortest pulse durations obtained directly from oscillators.- 6 May 2010
