Abstract
The achievements and the potential of coherent pulse addition as a performance scaling approach of ultrafast laser systems will be reviewed. Active multicore arrangements pursue that concept in a most compact way. First very promising results will be presented. The utilization of coherent combination has drastically increased the performance figures like average power, pulse energy, and peak power of ultrafast fiber laser systems. This could be realized by distributing power scaling challenges across multiple emitters to overcome the different physical limitations of these values. Today, single amplifier channels have been outperformed by more than one order of magnitude by systems employing either spatial combination of multiple amplifiers, temporal combination of multiple pulse replica or even both. Notable results include a system emitting 12 mJ femtosecond pulses at 700 W average power realized with 8 parallel channels and 4 temporal pulse replicas [1].
