title: Nd:glass diode-pumped regenerative amplifier, multimillijoule short-pulse chirped-pulse-amplifier laser.
abstract: We have built a diode-pumped Nd:glass regenerative amplifier that is able to produce energies up to 20 mJ within a 470-fs pulse duration at a 1-Hz repetition rate. We obtained this amplifier by using specific intracavity components such as a phase mirror and a birefringent filter to generate a large spatial mode and a large spectral width.
