  • Abstract
    In this paper, we report on microchip laser master-oscillator Er/Yb-doped fiber-power-amplifier emitting 158 μJ pulses with a duration of 4.5 ns. With this fiber amplifier we achieve an average signal power of 127 mW with a pulse repetition rate of 800 Hz and a peak power of 35 KW.
