Coherent Combination of Ultrafast Fiber Lasers — •Jens Limpert — Institute of Applied Physics, Abbe Center of Photonics, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Albert-Einstein-Str.15, 07745 Jena, Germany

Even the most advanced laser technologies have been pushed to their specific limitations in labs around the world. A significant increase in performance can not be expected in the coming years. New concepts have to be considered to address these issues and to enable new application fields. In that context, I will review the basics and achievements of coherent combination of amplified femtosecond pulses, a concept which has already out-performed single aperture femtosecond laser systems and which allows for a scaling to unprecedented performance levels. The spatially and temporally separated amplification of ultrashort laser pulses followed by coherent beam and pulse addition can bypass all performance restrictions of a single aperture laser system, therefore, enabling a quantum leap in performance of ultrafast lasers.
