femtosecond pulses is a promising performance-scaling approach for ultrafast laser
systems. Herein we demonstrate for the first time the application of this multidimensional
scheme in a scalable architecture. Applying actively controlled divided-pulse amplification
producing up to four pulse replicas that are amplified in two ytterbium-doped step-index
fibers (6 μm core), pulse energies far beyond the damage threshold of the single fiber have …
