Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING LIGHT PULSE FLOW
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS62254531
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the problem of producing a stream of optical pulses having high power of a high repetition rate. In one embodiment of the invention pulses from a first laser source (10) at a predetermined high repetition rate are passed through an isolator (38), mode-matched with an amplifier and then temporally multiplexed to a predetermined high repetition rate. The high repetition rate pulses (63) are then injected into a second source (70) where they are amplified to derive a stream (79) of high power pulses at the predetermined high repetition rate and than selectively released.
