    Abstract

    The capability of chirped-pulse compression and beam focusing of an object-image-grating self-tiling grating compressor is demonstrated in an optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification laser for the first time. Probe lasers for tiling error adjustments, which are generally required by the traditional tiled-grating compressor, are not needed in our demonstration any more. With the aid of the double-sized effective optical aperture of the second grating in the compressor, a 490 fs near-transform-limit pulse duration and a 90 μm near-diffraction-limit focal spot are obtained, synchronously, which are very close to the ones achieved by a non-tiled grating compressor with equal-sized individual gratings.
