Abstract We demonstrate a 100-TW-class femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser running at a repetition rate of 0.1 Hz based on a 20 TW/10 Hz laser facility (XL-II). Pumping the new stage amplifier with a 25J green Nd:glass laser, we successfully improve the laser energy to 3.4 J with duration of 29 fs, corresponding to a peak power of 117 TW.
