Abstract :
Summary from only given. We report for the first time to our knowledge on a multi millijoule system with repetition rates in the 10 kHz range. The setup of the high power and high energy Yb-doped fiber amplifier is shown. As a nanosecond seed source a Q-switched Nd:YAG disk laser is applied the laser delivers average powers up to 2.5 W.
