ABSTRACT: We report a diode-pumped high-repetition-rate chirped-pulse Yb:KGW regenerative amplifier delivering tens of microjoules pulse energy at repetition rates of up to 300kHz. High repetition rates are obtained by using an acousto-optic modulator as switching element in the regenerative amplifier cavity. The output pulses were compressed down to 600fs pulse duration. Even shorter pulses in the 100fs range are obtained using an amplifier configuration without chirped pulse amplification.

ABSTRACT: We report on a Q-switched fiber laser producing pulse durations well below 10 ns by using a short-length ytterbium-doped rod-type
photonic crystal fiber as gain medium. At repetition rates up to 100 kHz pulse energies up to 0.5 mJ and average powers in
excess of 30 W have been obtained in single-transverse mode beam quality. The compact short pulse laser system possesses further
power and energy scaling potential.
