Paper Abstract
We demonstrate a means of generating narrowband, tunable laser pulses near 650 nm with continuously adjustable pulse width from 0.2 to 3 nsec. The system utilizes a short-cavity single-mode Littman oscillator which is quenched by a second short-cavity dye laser. Both are pumped by the same 6-nsec full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) frequency-doubled single-mode Nd:YAG laser. We also demonstrate a polarization technique in the three-stage amplification of these pulses to an energy of 20 mJ with minimum temporal broadening.
