Abstract
Narrowband cw radiation at 940 and 960 nm is used to seed a Nd:YAG-pumped regenerative Ti:Sapphire amplifier. A Pockels cell traps a slice of the seed radiation inside the amplifier cavity, generating two synchronized pulses and releasing them after amplification. The total pulse energy is as high as 9 mJ at a pulse duration of 6.5 ns and a Fourier-transform-limited bandwidth. The timing jitter between the two pulses at the two wavelengths is less than ±300 ps. The relative pulse energy can be controlled by the relative seed laser power. Up to 1 mJ pulse energy at 320 nm was achieved by third-harmonic generation.
