Diode array-pumped kilowatt laser development

Abstract

The goal of the DAPKL program is to scale high brightness, diode pumped solid state lasers to the kilowatt average power level by developing a 10 J, 100 Hz system with a beam quality that is si.5 x D.L. The approach uses the phase conjugated master oscillator power amplifier (PC MOPA) architecture which has been used to obtain near diffraction limited beam quality at 100 W average powers. The energy per pulse is scaled by scaling the size of Nd:YAG slabs through diffusion bonding.
