We have demonstrated high-energy amplification of sub-nanosecond laser pulses with an Er,Yb:glass planar waveguide amplifier. The output pulse energy reached 500 μJ at 20 kHz repetition rate, 500 ps duration, and 1534 nm wavelength.

We demonstrate a highly efficient, continuously tunable, diamond Raman laser operating in the blue region of the spectrum. The linewidth and tunability characteristics of a frequency-doubled Ti:Sapphire laser were transferred directly to the Stokes output, offering great potential for spectroscopic applications using an all-solid-state platform.

Optical propagation is strongly influenced b y t he n umber concentration, size distribution, thermodynamic phase, and spatial distribution of particles in atmospheric clouds. These properties have been investigated in the field using an airborne digital holographic instrument. A laboratory facility has also been developed, in which optical propagation is being investigated in steady-state turbulent-cloud conditions.
