The authors describe an alexandrite regenerative amplifier used to amplify the output of various specialized oscillators. Nanosecond pulses from a narrow frequency CW-pumped dye laser, picosecond pulses from a gain-switched diode laser, and femtosecond pulses from a synchronously pumped dye laser were amplified by six-ten orders of magnitude in a single stage while conserving the temporal and spectral profiles characteristic to the oscillators.
