15 J at 532 nm, 5 Hz: the best Nd:YAG technology available
GAIA HP pushes forward the limits of output energy reachable at high repetition
rates. This Nd:YAG laser delivers indeed more than 24J at
1064 nm and 16J at 532 nm in a single beam with repetition rates of 5Hz.
Thanks to its high efficiency, GAIA HP is compact and offers easy operation
and maintenance.
It combines the best characteristics for many industrial applications: short pulse
duration and high energy to offer high intensity pulses, very low modulations to
have an uniform stress, high repetition rate for a faster process, unprecedented
energy stability and excellent beam pointing stability.
GAIA HP was also specially designed for high energy Ti:Sa amplifiers pumping
and offers a unique solution for ultrafast Terawatt and Petawatt systems. It
demonstrates a top-hat beam profile with very low peak-to-valley spatial
modulations, reproducible beam profile, a very limited beam distortion along
propagation and a short pulse duration to avoid prelasing in the Ti:Sa amplifiers
and to limit ASE.
