Scope
Thanks to the combined use of chirp pulse amplification and large-mode-area fibers, the Satsuma fiber amplifier platform is able to deliver short pulse duration (<300fs) high average power (up to 50W) and high energy (>40μJ) within a small footprint.
In this work package, Amplitude Systemes had to optimize the Satsuma for seeding an Yb:YAG thin disk amplifier.
