High average and peak power laser based on Yb:YAG amplifiers of advanced geometries developed in IAP RAS

摘要

High average and peak power laser based on Yb:YAG amplifiers of different geometries is being developed. The advantages of such advanced geometries as thin tapered rods and composite disks are investigated. The signal of sub-picosecond fiber laser is amplified up to 120 W average power, >10 mJ pulse energy at diffraction-limited beam quality.
