Abstract :
A novel Al/GaAs/Ti-Sapphire (LiSAF) master oscillator/power amplifier laser system, capable of operating in burst mode (>100 pulses) at 1.3 GHz, and producing frequency-tripled pulses with an energy >10 μJ at 278 nm and duration <500 fs to irradiate Cesium Telluride photocathodes is described
