Abstract
An optical arrangement spectrally broadens laser pulses for nonlinear pulse compression. The optical arrangement has: a broadening section that is configured to guide a laser pulse repeatedly through at least one nonlinear broadening element. The nonlinear broadening element has a dispersion property that is selected such that the dispersion property compensates any self-focusing of the laser pulse in the nonlinear broadening element.
