POWER LASER PULSE GENERATOR

摘要

Disclosed is a laser pulse generator in which a single pulse is generated from a train of pulses. The amplitude of this single pulse is the addition of the amplitudes of the pulses of the train of pulses. This addition is done in a non-linear crystal inserted in an optical loop. The train of pulses takes the place of a pump wave applied to the non-linear crystal and the signal circulating in the optical loop takes the place of a signal wave. This signal wave therefore benefits from a transfer of energy coming from the pump wave because of the interaction in the non-linear crystal.
