Abstract
We have developed a high power Ti:Sa laser driver for pumping sub-10 nm table-top soft X-ray lasers. The system is based on a four stage CPA design in which the final amplification stages are pumped by the frequency doubled output of a slab laser system operating at 1053 nm. Output energies of 13.5 J have been obtained pre-compression, allowing gain-saturated lasing in sub-10 laser lines at 1 Hz repetition rate.
