abstract = {Ultrafast lasers reaching extremely high powers within
short fractions of time enable a plethora of
applications.They grant advanced material processing
capabilities, are effective drivers for secondary photonand
particle sources, reveal extreme light-matter interactions,
and supply platforms for compact acceleratortechnologies,
with great application prospects for tumor therapy or
medical diagnostics. Many ofthese scientific cases benefit
from sources with higher average and peak powers. Following
mode-lockeddye and titanium-doped sapphire lasers, broadband
optical parametric amplifiers pumped by
ytterbium-dopedsolid-state sources have emerged as high
peak- and average power, ultrashort pulse lasers. A muchmore
power efficient alternative is provided by direct
post-compression of high-power diode-pumped ytterbiumlasers,
a route, which advanced to another level with the invention
of a novel spectral broadeningapproach, the multi-pass cell
technique. The method has enabled benchmark results yielding
sub-50 fspules at average powers exceeding 1kW, has
facilitated femtosecond post-compression at pulse
energiesabove 100 mJ and large compression ratios, while
staying compact and supporting picosecond to
few-cyclepulses. The striking progress of the technique in
the past five years puts light sources with tensto hundreds
of TW peak and multiple kW of average power in sight - an
entirely new parameter regimefor ultrafast lasers. In this
review, we introduce the underlying concepts including brief
guidelines discussingmulti-pass cell design and
implementation. We then present an overview of the achieved
performanceswith both bulk and gas-filled multi-pass cells.
Moreover, we discuss prospective advancesenabled by this
method including in particular opportunities for
applications demanding ultrahigh peak power,high repetition
rate lasers such as plasma accelerators and laser-driven
extreme ultraviolet sources.},
