Abstract:
The present invention provides systems and methods for producing short laser pulses that are amplified and spectrally broadened in a bulk gain media. The bulk material, having laser gain and nonlinear properties, is concurrently exposed to an optical pump input and a seed input, the pump power being sufficient to amplify and spectrally broaden the seed pulse.

Claim (Index 7):
A sub-nanosecond, broad spectrum generating laser system comprising:\n a master oscillator emitting pulsed signal light of input sub-nanosecond pulses along a path at a first wavelength, the input sub-nanosecond pulses each having a first pulse duration, first spectral width and first pulse peak power; a nonlinear bulk gain medium downstream from the master oscillator; an optical pump emitting continuous or discontinuous light pump at a second wavelength different from the first wavelength; and an input optical assembly between the master oscillator and nonlinear bulk gain medium, the input optical assembly being configured to superimpose and focus the pulsed signal and pump light on the bulk gain medium in a single pass such that the nonlinear bulk gain medium outputs sub-nanosecond pulses at the first wavelength, wherein each output sub-nanosecond pulse has a:\n second pulse duration shorter than the first pulse duration, \n second spectral width broader than the first spectral width, and \n second pulse peak power higher than the first pulse peak power
