Abstract
Amplitude Technologies is manufacturing TiSa and Nd:YAG pump laser since 20 years. We have seen during this period a large increase on the peak power delivered by these systems going from 100TW level up to more than 2PW. Since few years we are now facing a strong interest for the increase of the repetition rate leading to higher average power. We are currently finalizing the manufacturing of a 2PW TiSa system working at 10Hz whereas the previous generation was not going above 1Hz. To accomplish this work we have developed a Nd:YAG flashlamp pumped pump laser working at 10Hz and delivering 50J @ 532nm. We recently reached an important milstones by demonstrating amplification of TiSa above 220W.
