Description:
We report on CPA-free multipass amplification of ps-pulses in Holmium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Ho:YLF) crystals up to µJ pulse-energy-covering repetition rates from 10 kHz up to 500 kHz. The seed pulses at a wavelength of 2.05 µm are provided by a Ho-based all-fiber system consisting of a soliton oscillator and a subsequent pre-amplifier followed by a free-space AOM as pulse-picker. Considering the achieved pulse peak power at MW-level, this system is a powerful tool for e cient pumping of parametric conversion stages addressing the highly demanded mid-IR spectral region.
