Abstract

Driver for Pockels cells and using this Pockels cell within laser systems The driver i.e. the electrical control of the Pockels cell is modified from the standardly known H-configuration using the switches S, SA; SA, SA by adding at least one more switch (SB; SB; SB). This switch can either replace the usually used recharging resistors (R) or can be placed to these in parallel. It is also possible to use an arrangement using 4 switches (SA, SA, SB, SB) and no recharging resistors at all. Using such a driver with a Pockels cell pulses can be selected in laser systems more efficiently. Pulse sequences with well defined widths and spacing can be produced for certain application.
