Demonstration of a compact 100 Hz, 0.1 J, diode-pumped picosecond laser.
We have demonstrated an all-diode-pumped Yb:YAG chirped pulse amplification laser that produces 100 mJ pulses of 5 ps duration at 100 Hz repetition rate. The compact laser system combines a room-temperature Yb:YAG regenerative amplifier for increased bandwidth and a cryogenically cooled Yb:YAG four-pass amplifier for improved heat dissipation and increased efficiency. The optical efficiency of ...
متن کاملDiode-pumped Yb:CaF 2 multipass amplifier producing 50 mJ with dynamic analysis for high repetition rate operation
The dynamic thermal issues of the Yb:CaF2 crystals within a multi-tens-mJ-energy multipass amplifier operating in the 20–100 Hz repetition rate range and pumped in quasi-cw regime have been studied at different timescales. Thermal response times of the system have been precisely investigated and analyzed, for the first time to our best knowledge in such amplifiers. This study includes a dual ti...
متن کاملDiode-pumped long-pulse-length Ho:Tm:YLiF(4) laser at 10 Hz.
An optical efficiency of 0.052 under normal mode operation for diode-pumped Ho:Tm:YLiF(4) at a pulse repetition frequency of 10 Hz has been achieved. Laser output energy of 30 mJ in single Q-switched pulses with 600-ns pulse length were obtained for an input energy of 3 J. A diffusion-bonded birefringent laser rod consisting of Ho:Tm-doped and undoped pieces of YLF was utilized for 10-Hz operat...
متن کاملThermal lens study in diode pumped Ng- and Np-cut Nd:KGd(WO4)2 laser crystals.
A comparative study of thermal lensing effect in diode laser pumped Ng- and Np-cut Nd:KGd(WO4)2 (KGW) laser crystals was performed for laser emission polarized along the principle refractive axis, Nm. The thermal lens in the Ng-cut Nd: KGW was found to be weakly astigmatic with a positive refractive power for both the Nm- and Np-directions. For Np -cut Nd:KGW, strong astigmatism was observed an...
متن کاملDemonstration of a 100 Hz repetition rate gain-saturated diode-pumped table-top soft x-ray laser.
We demonstrate the operation of a gain-saturated table-top soft x-ray laser at 100 Hz repetition rate. The laser generates an average power of 0.15 mW at λ=18.9 nm, the highest laser power reported to date from a sub-20-nm wavelength compact source. Picosecond laser pulses of 1.5 μJ energy were produced at λ=18.9 nm by amplification in a Mo plasma created by tailoring the temporal intensity p...
