Direct measurement of gain recovery in a saturated Nd-glass amplifier
(1978)
The temporal dependence of the gain recovery in a Nd-silicate glass amplifier has been directly observed after the passage of a short intense saturating laser pulse. The gain recovery time constant measured for ED-2 glass ...
Short-pulse oscillator for SHIVA
(1978)
An actively mode-locked and Q-switched Nd:YAG laser has been developed with pulse widths adjustable from ~100 ps to 1 ns, stability better than ±5%, and a single pulse energy of more than 200 μJ over this range
Optical rise-time measurements on KD*P transmission-line Pockels cells
(1978)
A technique has been developed for determining the optical-transmission rise times of subnanosecond switching KD*P electro-optic modulators. Optical streak-camera data with 15-psec overall resolution and 30-psec resolution ...
