"plasma transmission gratings overcome power limitations of conventional solid-state optical gratings... ultrafast laser up to 1,000 times more powerful than existing lasers of the same size. Petawatt (quadrillion-watt) lasers rely on diffraction gratings for chirped-pulse amplification... stretching, amplifying and compressing high-energy laser pulse... avoid damaging optical components"
