Abstract

We report on a diode-pumped Yb:S-FAP CPA laser system for laser-Compton X-ray generation. We obtained amplified pulse energies up to 114 mJ at a repetition rate of 50 Hz after the preamplifier in chirped-pulse amplification. We also obtained amplified pulse energies up to 0.6 J after the main amplifier in preliminary long-pulse experiments.
