Parallel Plate Transmission Line Pockels Cell

Abstract

Design details were worked out for the construction of a KD*P Pockels cell capable of splitting out one or more pulses with a contrast ratio of 1000:1 or better from a Nd:YAG mode-locked pulse train. In addition, the two-port stripline construction of this Pockels cell makes possible the accurate sequential opening of two or more Pockels cell shutters from the same electrical signal.
