Abstract
Characteristics of an amplifier with repetition rate of a few KHz is investigated. The continuous flash lamp pumped Nd:YAG laser head is used as an amplifier. The thermally induced birefringence of the laser medium is compensated and the depolarization is reduced to 5% in a double-pass amplifier. The amplification factor of a four pass amplifier reaches to about 3.2 at the repetition rate 5-10 KHz and the pulse width is lengthened from 40 ns to 48 ns.
Keywords
