Abstract
We demonstrate a 2090-nm 1-ps MOPA based on a Tm, Ho-fiber laser seeder and a Ho:YAG regenerative amplifier delivering 1.25-mJ pulses at a repetition rate of 1 kHz as a prospective driver laser for mid-IR frequency conversion. The output energy and the repletion rate are currently limited by the available seeder energy.
