Abstract
This paper addresses the results of experimental and model studies of a copper bromide vapor brightness amplifier at high pump pulse repetition rates. The features of the operating mode that are associated with the use of a reduced energy input into the discharge to obtain superradiance and amplification at frequencies above 100 kHz are noted. For the first time, for active media on metal vapors, the superradiance obtained at a pump pulse repetition rate of up to 300 kHz in a CuBr-vapor medium. A prototype model of a high-speed brightness amplifier has been developed.
