The efficient, post-compression of high-energy Petawatt (PW) scale laser pulses toward the fundamental limit of a single-cycle pulse duration offers a path to extreme peak intensities without the need for adding additional costly energy amplification. Instead the existing pulse energy is redistributed in the generation of additional spectral bandwidth and further compressed through subsequent...
