Summary:A laser system and method. In one example, the laser system includes an optical pulse stretcher configured to stretch pulse durations of an input train of input pulses to produce a train of stretched laser pulses, a pulse replicator module configured to increase a pulse repetition rate of the train of stretched laser pulses to produce a modified pulse train of laser light, a fiber power amplifier configured to amplify the modified pulse train to produce amplified laser pulses, and a pulse compressor that temporally compresses the amplified laser pulses to produce amplified and compressed laser pulses. The system may further include a nonlinear frequency conversion stage comprising at least one nonlinear crystal.
