Title: A Multiterawatt Laser Using a High-Contrast, Optical Parametric Chirped-Pulse Presamplifier

Conference ·
OSTI ID:859110

A laser has been built that uses optical parametric chirped-pulse preamplification and a glass booster amplifier. We review the performance of the 5-Hz, multijoule OPCPA pump laser, the 370-mJ OPCPA, and the overall laser.
