Regenerative amplifier [electronic resource] : a source for synchronized, variable-duration pulses.
Regenerative amplifiers (RA) are flexible and stable devices for amplifying and varying the pulsewidth of picosecond pulses. With a Nd : YAG-RA amplifications up to 14 orders of magnitude with a stability of +-2% have been demonstrated. Also, variable pulsewidths over the range 10⁻¹¹ to 10⁻⁹ sec for...

| Summary: | Regenerative amplifiers (RA) are flexible and stable devices for amplifying and varying the pulsewidth of picosecond pulses. With a Nd : YAG-RA amplifications up to 14 orders of magnitude with a stability of +-2% have been demonstrated. Also, variable pulsewidths over the range 10⁻¹¹ to 10⁻⁹ sec for a fixed injection pulsewidth were demonstrated. With these capabilities, the RA can be used in a dual-pulse system to provide stable, accurately synchronized pulses of widely different duration. Such a system greatly extends the range of pulse-probe experiments for studies of relaxation phenomena, photochemistry, and laser-generated plasmas. |
