Abstract
Pumped by a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser, 10-Hz repetition rate,320-mJ pump energy, and 5.1-ns pulse width, a liquid Raman laser usingacetone as the Raman shifting medium has been established. The residualpump laser pulse and the generated Stokes pulse are directed to a DCMdye cell for energy enhancement of the Stokes pulse. The Raman lasersystem is capable to produce a laser pulse at wavelength 630 nm, withsingle pulse energy of 120 mJ, peak power of 70 MW and an average powerof 1200 mW. The energy conversion efficiency is 37.5%, or equivalentlya quantum efficiency of 44.5%.
