Abstract
A new arm of LLNL’s Optical Sciences Laser with twelve 20.8-cm aperture Nd:glass amplifier disks in double-pass configuration produces 1.5-kJ output with 10-J input. Net doublepass small-signal gain in disks is 900 at maximum pump energy. Active medium is 4-wt.% Nddoped Schott LG-770 laser glass.
