A semiconductor injection-switched high-pressure sub-10-picosecond carbon dioxide laser amplifier

A multiatmospheric-pressure-broadened CO₂ laser amplifier was constructed to amplify sub-10-picosecond pulses generated with semiconductor switching. High-intensity, mid-infrared, amplified pulses have many applications: especially in fields such as non-linear optics, laser-plasma interaction, an...
