Above-millijoule continuum generation using polarisation dependent filamentation in atoms and molecules

In this work we experimentally demonstrate for the first time that input polarization control inducing one single filamentation is a very robust technique to achieve multi-millijoule output energies. We highlight an accurate filamentation dynamic control enhancing throughput energy of the supercontinuum generation above one-millijoule limit consistent with sub-10fs laser pulse generation.
