Times Cited Count：33 Percentile：82.23(Optics)We have developed a 1 kHz repetition picosecond laser system dedicated for intense terahertz (THz) pulse generation. The system comprises a chirped pulse amplification laser equipped with a Yb:YAG thin-disk amplifier. At room temperature, the Yb:YAG thin-disk regenerative amplifier provides pulses having energy of over 10 mJ and spectral bandwidth of 1.2 nm. The pulse duration achieved after passage through a diffraction grating pair compressor was 1.3 ps. By employing this picosecond laser as a pump source, THz pulses having a peak frequency of 0.3 THz and 4 
J of energy were generated by means of optical rectification in an Mg-doped LiNbO
crystal.

and AlO on a magnesium-doped stoichiometric LiNbO substrate and fabricated grating grooves on the outermost layer. The multilayer was designed such that conditions for a Fabry-Perot resonator were satisfied for light diffracted by the grating. Consequently, the fraction of light transmitted into the LiNbO substrate, i.e., the diffraction efficiency, was enhanced by the resonator. The diffraction efficiency of the fabricated device was 71%, which is close to the calculated value of 78% from the optimized design. THz light generation was also demonstrated with the contact grating device. The THz output of 0.41 microJ was obtained using NIR pump light of 2.7 mJ.

This paper describes the improved COD assessment method and verifies the validity of the method based on the results of a series of four-point bending tests at elevated temperature using thin wall modified 9Cr-1Mo steel pipe containing a circumferential through wall crack. As a result, COD values calculated by the proposed method were in a good agreement with the experimental results for the uniform pipe without weld. In the case that the crack was machined at weld metal or heat affected zone (HAZ), proposed method predicted relatively larger COD than the experimental results. The causes of such discrepancies were discussed comparing with the results of finite element analyses. Based on these examinations, the rational leak rate evaluation method in LBB assessment was proposed.

We describe two specific high intensity laser systems that are being developed in our laboratory for many applications such as high field science and nonlinear optics. We report on an ultra-high intensity petawatt-class Ti:sapphire chirped-pulse amplification laser system that can produce a pulse energy of 
18 J with 30 fs pulse duration for studying extremely high intensity laser matter interaction process and a small-scaled Yb:YAG chirped-pulse amplification laser system that can generate a pulse energy of 100 m J of 500 fs pulse duration for compact, high efficiency, high repetition system. We discuss the basic design aspects and present the results from our experimental investigations of these laser systems.

We will present current status of a driver laser system for intense THz wave generation. The driver laser system, QUADRA-T, is a 1 kHz repetition CPA laser equipped with Yb:YAG thin disk amplifier. Current output power from a regenerative amplifier is about 10 W (10 mJ/pulse). Upgrade to 100W class power output using a multi-pass amplifier is the next plan.

We are developing a high average power laser system using Yb:YAG thin-disk amplifiers. Currently picoseconds pulses with 10 mJ energy are delivered from the regenerative amplifier at repetition rate of 1 kHz. The pulse energy will increase up to 100 mJ by a Yb:YAG thin-disk multi-pass amplifier. The picosecond pulses have been used in several applications such as intense THz light wave generation, laser induced damage test, and so on. I will present details of the laser system and preliminary results of applications.

We are developing intense THz light source to realize control of molecular axis orientation in space. From the theoretical studies by Hebling and co-workers, it has been known that the desirable excitation NIR pulse for the THz light generation process in the Mg-sLiNbO crystal should have the pulse width of 400 fs - 1 ps, and the tilted pulse front by 63 degree. To generate such NIR light, the Yb:YAG based amplifier system is one of the good candidates. By using this system, we are trying to generate the intense THz light with the high repetition rate (1 kHz).
