DIODE PUMPED YB3+:KGD(WO4)2 REGENERATIVE AMPLIFICATION SYSTEM OF FEMTOSECOND LASER PULSES

Abstract

The regenerative amplification system of femtosecond laser pulses, delivering a laser pulses with peak power more then 1 GW and duration <330 fs at repetition rates 1–10 kHz is presented. This system is applicable in pump-probe spectroscopy with high temporal resolution, as well as for pumping of optical parametric oscillators for generation of infrared femtosecond pulses.
