An alexandrite pumped Nd:glass regenerative amplifier for chirped pulse amplification
For many high field physics studies a laser source capable of producing intensities of 1017 W/cm 2 or greater is necessary. Ideally, such a laser source should be compact and simple so that it is at once reliable and manageable. In order to make the laser as compact as possible it is extremely desirable to use solidstate amplifier materials because of their energy storage capability. If this en...
متن کاملGeneration of 18-fs, multiterawatt pulses by regenerative pulse shaping and chirped-pulse amplification.
Transform-limited, 18-fs pulses of 4.4-TW peak power are produced in a Ti:sapphire-based chirped-pulsed amplification system at a repetition rate of 50 Hz. Regenerative pulse shaping is used to control gain narrowing during amplification, and an optimized, quintic-phase-limited dispersion compensation scheme is used to control higher-order phase distortions over a bandwidth of ~100 nm. Seed pul...
متن کاملRegenerative spectral and pulse shaping of high average power chirped pulse thin-rod Yb:YAG amplifier
Spectral gain narrowing of high-average power, regenerative chirped pulse thin-rod Yb:YAG amplifier was compensated by the regenerative spectral and pulse shaping technique. An average output power of 18 W was achieved at a repetition rate of 100 kHz with an output pulse width of below 1.2 ps. A wide spectral bandwidth of 2.5 nm was also observed. 2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (1...
متن کاملFiber amplification of pulse bursts up to 20 μJ pulse energy at 1 kHz repetition rate.
We demonstrate burst-mode operation of a polarization-maintaining Yb-doped fiber amplifier. Groups of pulses with a temporal spacing of 10 ns and 1 kHz overall repetition rate are amplified to an average pulse energy of ∼20 μJ and total burst energy of 0.25 mJ. The pulses are externally compressed to ∼400 fs. The amplifier is synchronously pulsed-pumped to minimize amplified spontaneous emissio...
متن کاملLaser pulse compression and amplification via Raman backscattering in plasma
A simple theoretical model is proposed for the interaction between two counter-propagating laser pulses (a pump and a seed pulse) in unmagnetized plasma. Pulse compression and amplification are observed via numerical simulation. A one dimensional fluid model for stimulated Raman backscattering is proposed to investigate the pulse compression and pulse amplification mechanisms. To accomplish thi...
