Control of the repetition rate and reduction of the jitter of the pulses of passively Q-switched solid-state miniature lasers using periodic diode-pump modulation

Journal Article Dement'ev, Aleksandr S ; Murauskas, E ; Slavinskis, S ; ... - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

Based on an extended point laser model, the lasing of passively Q-switched Nd : YAG minilasers has been numerically analysed. We have shown that periodically modulated diode pump may be used to control the pulse repetition rate and substantially reduce the timing pulse jitter. When the pump is modulated with rectangular pulses, switching from a high pump level to a low one upon generation of a successive laser pulse improves the stability of the pulse repetition rate relative to variations of the average pump level and broadens the range of repetition frequencies whereby they may be locked to the pulsemore »« less

High-power pulse repetitive HF(DF) laser with a solid-state pump generator

Journal Article Velikanov, S D ; Domazhirov, A P ; Zaretskiy, N A ; ... - Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

Operation of a repetitively pulsed electric-discharge HF(DF) laser with an all-solid-state pump generator based on FID switches is demonstrated. The energy stored in the pump generator capacitors was 880 J at an open-circuit voltage of 240 kV and a discharge pulse repetition rate of 25 Hz. The specific energy extractions were 3.8 and 3.4 J L{sup -1} for the HF and DF lasers, respectively. The possibilities of improving the output laser characteristics are discussed. (lasers)

Design considerations for long-pulse, high-repetition-rate modulators for recirculating heavy-ion accelerators

Conference Newton, M A ; Reginato, L L ; Yu, S S

Heavy-ion accelerators are considered to be one of the promising driver alternatives for inertial fusion. In an inertial fusion driver, multiple beams of heavy-ions are accelerated to kinetic energies consistent with the fusion target requirements. During acceleration, the beams of heavy ions are compressed in time from an initial pulse duration that range from 10`s to 100`s of microseconds to a final pulse duration of approximately 10 nanoseconds. The compressed beam of heavy ions is then focused on the target in a reactor chamber where the energy released from the fusion reaction is converted to thermal energy and eventually tomore »« less
