Intermediate Pulsewidth Laser System

Abstract

The report is the fourth in the series of semiannual technical reports on Contract N00014-66-C-0056. Studies of the generators are continued. System performance with a preamplifier is considered as is the system stability. Polarization experiments were performed and damage thresholds for the various optical components were determined. Finally modifications to the laser system required as result of the above studies are described.
