The SLAC polarized electron source uses a laser driven photo cathode gun. We have developed a Titanium Sapphire laser at SLAC to replace the dye laser currently used for the source. The new laser is designed to operate at wavelengths between 750 and 850 nm while producing 400mJ of energy in 1.6 ns pulses at 120 Hz. Installation on the accelerator is expected in January of 1993.
