Development of a chirped pulse amplification laser with zigzag slab Nd:glass amplifiers dedicated to x-ray laser research
A chirped pulse amplification laser with zigzag slab Nd:glass amplifiers dedicated to x-ray laser research is described. The laser provides a 1.6 ps duration pulse with?7 J energy at a repetition rate of0.1 Hz. In the power amplifier system, laser light is amplified in a two-step manner: The first step is image-relayed multipass amplification up to?1 J with a10 mm x 10 mm beam.The second step is double-pass amplification up to>10 J with a10 mm x 90 mm beam.By using this laser system, the saturated amplification of the Ni-like Ag laser at a wavelength of13.9 nm has been successfully demonstrated.
