Phase control for production of high-fidelity optical pulses for chirped-pulse amplification

We demonstrate continuous tuning of the cubic and quartic phases of the pulse stretcher in a chirped-pulse amplification laser system. We obtain near-bandwidth-limited recompression of 100-fs pulses by minimizing the total phase through fourth order.
