Conversion efficiency and pulse shortening of a frequency-tripled, sub-nanosecond, 1.064 μm pulse

  • 1. Univ. of California, Livermore

Description

Single pulses from a mode-locked Nd laser are frequency tripled in a cascade process to provide a 3547 A probe for holographic interferometry of laser-produced plasmas. Overall energy conversion in excess of 30 percent and directly measured pulse shortening of 24 percent are reported for KDP crystals with an incident intensity of 109 W/cm2
