Nanosecond pulses are efficiently amplified by a two-stage EDFA. The EDFA employs an optical bandpass filter between stages to remove the amplified spontaneous emission of the first EDFA that strongly saturates the gain of the second EDFA. The peak power of the amplified output pulse is 83 W when that of the input pulse of 10 ㎱width and 100 $mutextrm{s}$ period is 1 ㎽.

A two-stage erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) with a band pass filter is used to get optical pulses of high peak value. The pulse signal has a 32 ㏈ extinction ratio, 125 W peak power and 79 ㎽ pulse off power. A nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) is used to lower the pulse off power so as to increase the extinction ratio. The pulse signal after the NOLM has a 50.4 ㏈ extinction ratio, 35 W peak power and 0.3 ㎽ pulse off power.

We studied the effect of gain recovery at the optical fiber amplifier by the input pulse trains We also theoretically analyzed the limitation of the saturation and recovery time for the PDFA(Praseodymium-Doped Fiber Amplifier) which has the spectral gain at 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ band. We can predict the interval between the pulse train, pump power, and the effect of the saturation and recovery time which is affected to the amplification of the optical pulse.

The nonlinear three-wave interaction is an interesting topic having various applications in nonlinear optics, hydrodynamics, acoustic waves, and plasma physics. The resonant interaction between two laser pulses and a plasma wave plays important roles in plasma heating, laser reflection in the inertial confinement fusion (ICF), plasma wakefield generation, and ultra-intense laser pulse amplification and pulse compression using stimulated Raman backscattering (RBS).

다양한 응용분야에서 극초단 펄스의 쓰임은 점점 증가하고 있는 추세이고, 따라서 고에너지의 극초단 펄스를 방출할 수 있는 소형화된 source 개발연구는 현재 활발히 진행되고 있다 극초단 펄스를 증폭, 보다 높은 에너지를 손쉽게 방출하기 위한 방법의 하나인 광 파라메트릭 chirped pulse amplification(OPCPA)은 처음으로 Dubietis et al.에 의해 시도되었으며, 기본원리는 피코 혹은 나노초 펄스의 고에너지를 효율적으로 시간상 stretching된 극초단 펄스로 전이하는 것이다. (중략)

A chirped-pulse amplification femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser operating at 1 KHz has been developed. The laser system consisted of a long-cavity femtosecond oscillator, a four-pass grating pulse stretcher, two multi-pass amplifiers and a double-pass grating pulse compressor. Thermal lensing at the amplifiers was reduced by cooling Ti:sapphire crystals using Peltier coolers. Gain narrowing and residual phase errors were compensated for by the use of an acousto-optic pulse shaper. The final laser output had an energy per pulse of 2.0 mJ and a pulse duration of 19.5 fs, reaching 0.1 TW at 1 KHz.

Two-stage TEA(transversely excited atmospheric pressure) CO2 laser amplifier system, Amp I and Amp II are consturcted and their amplification characteristics are investigated theoretically and experimentally. Multiple-wire corona preionization method is used for uniform discharge in laser oscillator and amplifiers. At optimumm gas ratio, CO2 : N2 : He = 1 : 1 : 3, output pulse energy of the oscillator is 0.4J and finally two-stage amplification gives 1.5J output energy which is larger than pumping threshold of para-H2 Raman laser. The rate equations of the amplifiers are solved numerically, and the results are compared with the experimental results. In conclusion, the small signal gain cocfficient of AMP I is 0.025/cm and that of AMP II is 0.02/cm.
