Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a laser amplifier, in particular to a polarized light multi-pass amplifier based on spliced crystals. Background technique
[0002] The Chirped-Pulse-Amplification (CPA) system has higher and higher energy requirements, which makes the crystal (titanium sapphire) diameter larger and larger, and the crystal growth period of a large diameter is long and expensive. Secondly, when the seed pulse is amplified by the crystal, the parasitic oscillation (Parasitic Lasing, PL for short) generated in the crystal greatly consumes the energy storage of the crystal, which seriously affects the spot quality and amplification efficiency of the amplified output pulse, and with the As the crystal aperture increases, parasitic oscillations are more likely to occur. Crystal splicing technology can effectively suppress the generation of parasitic oscillations, and at the same time, it can form crystals with larger apertures, which solves the ab...
