Abstract
Abstract
We report on the development and characterization of kW-average-power cryogenically-cooled amplifiers generating Joule-level pulses of picosecond duration at 1 kHz. Analysis of the thermal and multilayer coating damage behavior of a high-energy kilowatt-average-power diode-pumped Yb:YAG active mirror based on measurements and simulations is presented.
