Abstract
The present application discloses various embodiments and methods of producing a quasi-CW UV laser system having the pulse duration and bandwidth to optimize harmonic conversion while producing a UV output configured to satisfy the constraints imposed by the optical system in optical communication therewith. More specifically, in one embodiment the present application discloses a method of optimizing at least one characteristic of the output of a laser system and includes providing a laser system having at least one spectral modification element in optical communication therewith, determining at least one optical characteristic of the output of the laser system for a given application, selecting the bandwidth of the output of the laser system to provide the determined characteristic, and adjusting the spectral modification element to provide the selected bandwidth.
