title: 1.1-J, 120-fs laser system based on Nd:glass-pumped Ti:sapphire.
abstract: We have developed an ultrashort-pulse laser system in which the final Ti:sapphire amplifier stage is pumped by the frequency-doubled output of a Nd:glass laser. The laser produces pulses with an energy in excess of 1 J on target and an estimated peak focused irradiance of 5 x 10(19) W/cm(2).
