Abstract

Phase conjugate mirrors based on stimulated Brillouin scattering were developed for incorporation into multiple-pass Nd:glass amplifiers. These high efficiency non-linear mirrors allowed exceptional saturated performance by the multiple-pass amplifiers: gain m 1000 at saturation fluence, near diffraction limited beam quality, no self-oscillations or pre/post pulses and minimum amplified spontaneous emission, and good beam axis stability.
