Understanding fundamental mechanisms on a femtosecond timescale such as charge transfer processes in light harvesting structures [1] or the coherent motion of electrons in the vicinity of metallic nanostructures [2] requires an ultrafast pulsed laser source. Here, we demonstrate a passively carrier-envelope phase (CEP) stabilised source [3] delivering two-cycle laser pulses of up to 220 nJ pulse energy and tunable between 1200-2100 nm [4]. Pulses at up to 5 kHz from a regenerative titanium:sapphire chirped pulse amplifier generate a white light continuum, from which both a broadband spectrum in the visible and a narrowband spectrum in the infrared are parametrically amplified in two non-collinear stages pumped by the second harmonic of the driving pulses. By recombining both stages via difference frequency generation CEP fluctuations cancel to within <800 mrad RMS shot-to-shot and <50 mrad RMS averaged over 100 pulses, both measured over 20 minutes by spectral f-to-2f interferometry. This compares favourably to similar systems [5] and makes our system highly suitable for the experiments mentioned above. [1] Pittalis, S., Delgado, A. et al. Adv. Funct. Mater.
