Abstract

A system for making optimum use of frequency shifted radiation by extracting both front and back travelling frequency shifted radiation beams. The two extracted laser beams are later combined in the same polarization for energization of a dye laser channel or cell for increased pumping efficiency in the dye laser operation. Additionally, where the generating cavity for the two beams is mode locked, the two extracted beams may be applied to the dye laser cell in time staggered manner in order to maintain the stability of subsequent amplification stages between pulses.
