Description
We introduce a novel nonlinear multi-pass cell configuration comprising a concave-convex geometry. In a proof-of-principle experiment, 260 fs, 15 $\mu$J pulses are broadened and compressed to approximately 50 fs with 90 % efficiency with excellent spatio-spectral homogeneity. A compact design for 0.5 J and 1 ps laser is also presented.
