  • Patent number: 9431785
    Abstract: Disclosed is a high power ultra-short pulsed laser device increasing pulse energy by using resonators. A pulsed laser device may comprise a first resonator making a pump beam resonate primarily and passing the pump beam which resonated through a first output mirror; and a second resonator comprising a first multiple reflection mirror and a second multiple reflection mirror. Also, the first multiple reflection mirror includes at least one first small area mirror, and the second multiple reflection mirror includes at least one second small area mirror, and the second resonator makes the laser beam delivered from the first resonator resonate by reflecting the laser beam repetitively. Therefore, the pulsed laser device may increase pulse energy without using a multi-stage amplifier so that a high power ultra-short pulsed laser beam can be generated.

  • Patent number: 7630416
    Abstract: Provided is a high-repetition-rate femtosecond regenerative amplification system. The regenerative amplification system includes: a laser oscillator emitting pulses; a stretcher stretching the pulses with negative dispersion; a regenerative amplifier amplifying the pulses, the regenerative amplifier comprising an acousto-optic modulator for pulse switching, a pulsed pump laser for pumping a gain medium, a resonator for reciprocating the pulses between a plurality of mirrors, and at least one chirped mirror for providing negative dispersion; and a glass compressor compressing the pulses. Accordingly, the 100 kHz-class high-repetition-rate femtosecond regenerative amplification system can produce an output energy of tens of ?J, higher than a few ?J provided by a conventional system.
