Abstract :
The carrier-envelope phase (CEP) of a femtosecond laser was stabilized using the direct locking method developed at KAIST. The CEP drift of high-power femtosecond laser pulses, generated in a chirped-pulse amplification kHz Ti:sapphire laser, was compensated using a slow feedback loop from the signal from a spectral interferometer.
