A comparison of transients from heavy-ion and pulsed-laser testing shows good agreement for many different voltage configurations. The agreement is illustrated by comparing directly individual transients and plots of transient amplitude versus width.
The purpose of this testing was to obtain sample pulsed-laser-induced single event transients (SETs) of the Analog Devices AD620 Instrumentation Amplifier. The test was conducted at the Naval Research Laboratory using their two-photon absorption (TPA) laser.
The purpose of this testing was to characterize the pulsed-laser-induced single event effect (SEE) susceptibility of the Texas Instruments LM7171 voltage feedback amplifier. The test was conducted at the Naval Research Laboratory using their two-photon absorption (TPA) laser.
This document provides instructions for performing laser-induced-damage-threshold tests and pass-fail certification tests on optical materials used in pulsed-laser systems. The optical materials to which these procedures apply include coated and uncoated optical substrates, laser crystals, Q-switches, polarizers, and other optical components employed in pulsed-laser systems.

A remotely-adjustable laser transmission and imaging system has been developed for use in a high-pressure, cryogenic wind tunnel. Implementation in the National Transonic Facility has proven the system suitable for velocity and signal lifetime measurements over a range of operating conditions. The measurement system allows for the delivery of high-powered laser pulses through the outer pressure shell and into the test section interior from a mezzanine where the laser is free from environmental disturbances (such as vibrations and excessive condensation) associated with operation of the wind tunnel. Femtosecond laser electronic excitation tagging (FLEET) was utilized to provide freestream velocity measurements, and first results show typical data that may be obtained using the system herein described.
