Abstract
UV holographic recording of Chirped Volume Bragg gratings (CBGs) in photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) glass made possible commercial production of pulse stretchers and compressors commonly deployed in high power and/or high energy ultrashort laser systems. The improved holographic technology enabled fabrication of CBGs with spectral bandwidth above 40 nm for a spectral region covering 800 to 2500 nm and providing dispersion ranging from few ps/nm up to 5000 ps/nm. In this presentation temporal and spatial shaping of ultrashort pulses by means of chirped VBGs will be presented and discussed.
