Abstract

A high power picosecond Nd:YAG laser system has been developed for use in semiconductor optical switching of ultrashort CO2 pulses to provide a synchronized source for a laser particle acceleration experiment.1 The system utilizes a single regenerative amplifier to produce more than 5 mJ in a 12-ps pulse from the chirped output of a cw mode-locked NdiYAG laser. Generation of compressed pulses, without the use of a dispersive delay line, by amplification of broadly chirped pulses in a narrow-bandwidth amplifier has previously been demonstrated in a multiamplifier Nd:YAG system.2
