Problems solved by technology

However, the pulse purification capability of this device is limited by the extinction ratio of the polarizer and analyzer, and the contrast can only be increased by 2 to 4 orders of magnitude on the original basis.

On the other hand, the XPW technique is limited by the incident light source

If there is only an 800nm ​​femtosecond light source, femtosecond pulses in the 1053nm or 1064nm band cannot be generated to meet the needs of neodymium glass applications; if the CEP of the incident light is unstable, it is impossible to obtain femtosecond pulses with stable CEP

Finally, due to the use of third-order nonlinear effects in prior art devices, they are very sensitive to external influences

The instability of the input energy and the change of the airflow in the device will cause the output beam to shake and the energy to change drastically, thus affecting the stability of t
