Abstract

A subpicosecond KrF* laser system capable of producing 20 +/- 2-mJ pulses has been developed. The means of producing ultrashort seed pulses for the KrF* amplifier system and characteristics of the full system are described. It is shown that efficient subpicosecond energy extraction is possible.
