Multiterawatt Laser System Based on Ti:A1 sub 2 O sub 3

Ultrashort duration, high-energy laser pulses have been generated using a titanium-doped-sapphire oscillator and amplifier system. The pulses have an energy of 0.45 Joules with a duration of 95 femtoseconds, and 0.23 Joules with a duration of 60 femtoseconds. We have constructed a titanium-aluminum...

Zusammenfassung:	Ultrashort duration, high-energy laser pulses have been generated using a titanium-doped-sapphire oscillator and amplifier system. The pulses have an energy of 0.45 Joules with a duration of 95 femtoseconds, and 0.23 Joules with a duration of 60 femtoseconds. We have constructed a titanium-aluminum oxide based laser system which uses chirped pulse amplification (CPA) and multipass amplifiers. Pulses are produced with a peak power of 3 TW, an energy of 0.45 J and a duration of 95 fs. The oscillator is a mode-locked Ti:A12O3 laser pumped by an Argon(+) laser.
