High-power, high-brightness master-oscillator power-amplifier copper laser system based on kinetically enhanced active elements

We report the performance characteristics of a copper laser master-oscillator power-amplifier system incorporating kinetically enhanced active elements. The advantages provided by kinetic enhancement lead to record brightness levels.
