Abstract: A time compressor of femtosecond laser pulses is developed using supercritical xenon as an active medium. Laser pulses with a duration of 300-fs and an energy of 8 mJ are compressed to 23 fs with an efficiency of 40%.

Keywords: femtosecond pulses, xenon, supercritical fluid, time compression; self-phase modulation.
