Starting from the basics of the linear processes involved and the essential design considerations, the author clearly and systematically describes the various prerequisites of the nonlinear optical systems expected to drive attosecond physics in the coming decade. In this context, he gives an overview of methods for generating the broadband and carrier-envelope-phase stable seed pulses necessary for producing controlled electric-field waveforms in the final system; provides a guide to handling the high-power, high-energy pump lasers required to boost the pulse energy to the desired operating range; describes the design of the nonlinear optical system used to perform the amplification, including modes of operation for ultra-broadband infrared-visible pulses or narrowband (yet still ultrafast) pulses tunable over multiple octaves; and finally presents a prospective high-energy field synthesizer based upon these techniques. As such, this work is essential reading for all scientists interested in utilizing the newest generation of ultrafast systems. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aQuantum optics 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronic materials 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aQuantum Optics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24050 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aQuantum optics. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronic materials. 615 14$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aQuantum Optics. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 676 $a621.366 700 $aFattahi$b Hanieh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0814279 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254624603321 996 $aThird-Generation Femtosecond Technology$91818970 997 $aUNINA
