Abstract

A pulse shaping and frequency modulation system based on chirped-pulse-amplification and pulse train multiplexing techniques in regenerative amplifier is proposed. It is shown that by using standard frequency modulators of MHz range one can obtain up to 100 GHz modulation frequencies. This system enables to generate arbitrary pulse-shaped pulses with temporal resolution determined by length of initial pulses from mode-locked master oscillator. Nd:glass CPA laser system has been used for demonstration of such type system operation.
