Abstract

The drive laser system of the photoelectric injector for free-electron laser (FEL) is described. This system consists of a 1.064 micrometers mode-locked Nd:YAG oscillator, a pulsed Nd:YAG amplifier chain, Pockels cell electrooptic shutter for selection of part of the amplifier pulse train, KTP frequency doubler and DKDP fourth harmonic generator are used. The bright electron beams required for high performance FEL's demand stringent specifications on drive laser output levels, beam quality, and stability. The design specifications, laser architecture, and operating performance are presented.
