| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a cascade optical system for multifocusing of ultrashort pulse beams. The system consists of a diffractive subsystem, a refractive subsystem, and a phase plate located between them. The primary reason for pulse distortions is chromatic aberrations arising from a diffractive beam splitter. Two subsystems optically coupled in cascade correct chromatic aberrations and the phase plate compensates for angular dispersions, while remaining material dispersions are removed by pre-chirping the input pulse. We designed a prototype system for evaluation by applying the aberration correction conditions derived from a ray-matrix analysis. The designed system was evaluated with 20-fs pulses by characterizing the transmitted pulses in terms of spatial and temporal profiles to verify the proposed beam delivery scheme. This optical system, which has the potential to be extended to sub-20 fs, enables thermal-free and high-throughput nano-and micro-processing using ultrashort pulses.
