High average power laser which generates radiation at a wavelength near 530 nm

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5980458

A high average intensity and high peak intensity laser system is described, wherein said laser system is comprised of: an oscillator means which produces an optical beam; a first optical means having a mode matching optic means and located adjacent to said oscillator means such that said optical beam traverses said first optical means; a multipass amplifier means located adjacent to said first optical means such that said optical beam is traversed through said amplifier means in order to increase an intensity of said optical beam by a predetermined amount; and a second optical means having a frequency doubling crystal means and located adjacent to said amplifier means such that said optical beam having said increased intensity is traversed through said second optical means to create a laser beam having a high average intensity and a high peak intensity.
