Abstract :
A very high gain amplifier has been developed by arranging for many amplifying passes to be made through one system. Input pulses of millijoule energy have been amplified to the damage limit of the materials (∼10 J/cm2) by this method. One such system can replace several when amplification of low-energy pulses is required.
