TL;DR: By injecting single subnanosecond pulses into a latent ring-laser oscillator, it is possible to generate highly reproducible intense trains of short pulses from a solid-state laser as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: By injecting single subnanosecond pulses into a latent ring-laser oscillator, it is possible to generate highly reproducible intense trains of short pulses from a solid-state laser. In this way, 12-psec pulses are available from a high-repetition-rate Nd3+:YAG laser, whereas Nd3+:phosphate glass reliably produces pulses of 3-cm−1 bandwidth.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 0.1 μJ, 40 ps pulse, selected from a TEM00 Nd:YAG master oscillator has been regeneratively amplified in a single 0.9 cm diameter gain module to the 100 mJ level while preserving both its temporal and spatial characteristics.

TL;DR: In this paper, a DH GaAs laser was measured in two different geometries, including both discrete and integrated optics configurations, and the experimental results and theoretical models were compared.
Abstract: : Regenerative amplification has been measured in a DH GaAs laser in two different geometries, including both discrete and integrated optics configurations. Regimes of strong and weak signal gains have been identified and measured, with gains being as large as 170. Comparison has been made between the experimental results and theoretical models. In general, the agreement is excellent. Details of the experiments and theoretical models are presented in this report. (Author)
