Abstract
A 25-J, 50-ns laser pumped by opposed electron beams is described. Experiments with this device demonstrated a 9% intrinsic laser efficiency at power deposition rates of about 1 MW/cm3. Parasitic control and narrowband output required for Raman-compression experiments were demonstrated by injection locking the laser. Experiments showing an angle-encoded extraction of energy from the medium (pulse stacking) with three pulses using a high-gain three-pass amplifier configuration are also described. The device utilizes triggering schemes of very low jitter suitable for synchronization to other components for optical pulse-compression experiments.
