The petawatt-class laser system POLARIS in Jena has been developed and continuously improved within the last two decades. For Laser induced ion acceleration the contrast of the laser is of crucial importance. The amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and prepulses of high power lasers, such as POLARIS, create a preplasma on the target nanoseconds before the main pulse arrives. In the case of ultra thin foils with thicknesses of a few nanometers, it is essential that the main pulse ionizes the target. Therefore, the contrast was improved by adding an XPW stage in a double CPA setup. And it was further improved via second harmonic generation of the main laser pulses in a nonlinear crystal. The second harmonic pulses were then focused onto targets with thicknesses in the range of 5 nm to 1000 nm. The aim of this talk is to explain the experiment and to discuss the results.
