Description of the research topic:
In short pulse KrF excimer amplifiers – due to the short storage time of the active medium – successive replenishment of the momentarily stored energy is the only way to have access to the whole stored energy. Multipass off-axis amplification scheme relaxes but does not solve the problem of energy extraction, because the optimum operational condition cannot be maintained for more than 3 passes. Optical multiplexing (combined with off-axis amplification) is the ultimate method for efficient energy extraction. The main goal of this research is to realize an amplification scheme using multiplexing arrangement for at least 4 partial beams with interferometric accuracy.
