A high repetition rate pulsed Ti:sapphire laser injection-locked to a
continuous wave seed source is presented. A spectral linewidth of 20 MHz at an average
output power of 4W is demonstrated. An enhanced tuning range from 710-920 nm with
a single broadband mirror set is realized by the inclusion of a single thin birefringent
quartz plate for suppression of unseeded emission. The spectral properties have been
analyzed using both a scanning Fabry-P´erot interferometer as well as crossed beam
resonance ionization spectroscopy of the hyperfine levels of natural copper. Delayed
ionization of the long-lived excited state is demonstrated for increased resolution. For
the excited state hyperfine coupling constant of the 244 nm 4s 2S1/2 → 4s4p4P

ground-state transition in 63Cu, a factor of ten reduction in error compared to previous
literature was achieved. The described laser system has been in operation at several
radioactive ion beam facilities.
