In this manuscript, an implementation of a tunable nonlinear phase compensation method is demonstrated on a typical femtosecond hybrid laser consisting of a fiber pre-amplifier and an additional solid-state amplifier. This enables one to achieve constant laser pulse parameters over a wide range of pulse repetition rates in such a laser. As the gain in the solid-state amplifier is inversely proportional to the input power, the shortfall in the solid-state gain at higher repetition rates must be compensated for with fiber pre-amplifier to ensure constant pulse energy. This increases the accumulated nonlinear phase and consequently alters the laser pulse parameters such as pulse duration and Strehl ratio. To overcome this issue, the nonlinear phase must be compensated for, and what is more it should be compensated for to a different extent at different pulse repetition rates. This is achieved with a tunable CFBG, used also as a pulse stretcher. Using this concept, we demonstrate that constant laser pulse parameters such as pulse energy, pulse duration and Strehl ratio can be achieved in a hybrid laser regardless of the pulse repetition rate.

Two approaches are proposed for the synthesis of bimetallic Au/Ag nanoparticles, using the pulsed laser ablation of a target consisting of gold and silver plates in a medium of supercritical carbon dioxide. The differences between the two approaches related to the field of “green chemistry” are in the use of different geometric configurations and different laser sources when carrying out the experiments. In the first configuration, the Ag and Au targets are placed side-by-side vertically on the side wall of a high-pressure reactor and the ablation of the target plates occurs alternately with a stationary “wide” horizontal beam with a laser pulse repetition rate of 50 Hz. In the second configuration, the targets are placed horizontally at the bottom of a reactor and the ablation of their parts is carried out by scanning from above with a vertical “narrow” laser beam with a pulse repetition rate of 60 kHz. The possibility of obtaining Ag/Au alloy nanoparticles is demonstrated using the first configuration, while the possibility of obtaining “core–shell” bimetallic Au/Ag nanoparticles with a gold core and a silver shell is demonstrated using the second configuration. A simple model is proposed to explain the obtained results.
