Summary form only given. Pulsed-laser systems emit optical pulses having a temporal pulse shape characteristic of the particular type of laser design. Advances in technology have produced laser pulse-shaping systems where the laser temporal profile can be specified in advance and controlled to a high degree of accuracy. Recently an electrical waveform generator based on aperture-coupled striplines (ACSL) has been developed. This electrical waveform generator can produce shaped electrical waveforms with 100-ps structure over a 5-ns window. The output of this ACSL waveform generator is capable of driving optical modulators that produce shaped optical pulses suitable for OMEGA applications.
