We report a novel amplifier for the subpicosecond pulsed output of a colliding-pulse mode-locked ring dye laser. The amplifier produces >30-..mu..J output pulses at 100 Hz by using three stages of amplification pumped by a shortcavity XeCl excimer laser. Pulse-width broadening, spectral shape, and beam quality are discussed.
