The dual-tripler scheme for enhancing the bandwidth of third-harmonic generation proposed by Eimerl {ital et al.}thinspthinsp[Opt.thinspthinspLett.thinspthinsp{bold 22,} 1208 (1997)] is experimentally demonstrated for the conversion of 1054-nm radiation to 351thinspthinspnm. It is shown that the spacing between the triplers must be carefully controlled. The results are in excellent agreement with theory and indicate that fusion lasers can be frequency tripled with a threefold increase in bandwidth. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital Optical Society of America}
