Abstract:

This report results from a contract tasking Company as follows The contractor will 1 deliver SRS crystal samples currently available, and analyze the principal limitations of SRS conversion of 1.32 micron radiation 2 deliver SRS crystal samples available at this stage of the contract, and operate the laser with rep rate of up to 20 Hz and energy of 20mJ single mode and 150mJ multi-mode, and grow larger SRS-active crystals and 3 produce final SRS crystal samples, and study SRS conversion parameters vary beam focus within and outside the cavity, measure spectral and coherence properties of the radiation, investigate SRS amplification of single mode radiation with multi-mode pumping, and prepare final report.
