Today we successfully completed the installation of the Coherent Legened Elite Amplified Laser System. We are now producing 100 fs pulses with 4.0mJ of energy per pulse, and 35 fs pulses, each at 3.8 mJ. This clears the way for the additional installations of the remaining hardware for the photon factory. This will include, the JPSA integrated micromachining platform, and two TOPAS optical amplifiers. These installations are projected to take place in April and May of this year.
