Abstract

An approach to achieve co-axial picosecond laser pulsed pair is proposed. Instead of introducing additional optical devices, this method involves the adjustment of switching-out dynamics in the regenerative amplification process. Experimental results concerning the dependence of laser output behavior on the duration of the quarter-wave voltage applied on the Pockels cell are reported. The influence of ablation mode (single pulse or double pulse) on the morphology of deposited Nickel-films is studied. A significant improvement in the surface morphology with the double pulse mode is observed. Fewer nanoparticles are observed and the thin film appears to be smoother with lower roughness.
