Passive coherent beam combining of quantum-cascade lasers with a Dammann grating

An external cavity using a binary phase grating has been developed to achieve coherent combining of five quantum-cascade lasers emitting at 4.65 μm. The grating phase profile is designed to combine five beams of equal intensities into a single beam with a good efficiency (~75%). The performances of this cavity concerning output power, stability, combining efficiency and beam quality are detailed. We report a CW combining efficiency of 66% corresponding to an output power of ~0.5 W with a good beam quality (M(2)<1.6).     

Experimental study of efficiency optimization in a three-cavitygyroklystron amplifier

An experimental study quantifying the effects of both penultimate cavity tuning and magnetic field profiling on the saturated efficiency of a three-cavity gyroklystron amplifier has been performed at a frequency of 4.5 GHz. As predicted by theory, it is observed that the penultimate cavity detuning in the gyroklystron is in the opposite direction from a conventional klystron for enhanced efficiency operation. This is a result of the opposite energy dependence of the bunching mechanism for the two interactions. Magnetic field profiling has also been shown to have a very strong effect on the amplifier efficiency, both through beam loading effects in detuning the penultimate cavity and through enhanced energy extraction in the output cavity. The measured efficiency of the gyroklystron is observed to improve from 5% to 21% by profiling the magnetic field along the device, and then from 21% to 29% by penultimate cavity detuning with an optimized magnetic field profile

Coaxial cavity gyrotron with dual RF beam output

A 140-GHz, 1.5-MW, TE_28,16-coaxial cavity gyrotron with a dual RF beam output has been designed, built, and tested. For the first time, the generated RF power has been split into two parts and coupled out through two RF output windows in order to reduce the power loading in the windows. The quasioptical output system is based on a two-step mode conversion scheme. First, the cavity mode TE_-28,16 is converted into its degenerate whispering gallery mode TE_+76,2 using a rippled-wall mode converter. Then, this mode is transformed into two TEM₀₀ output wave beams. A maximum rf output power of about 950 kW with an output efficiency of 20% has been measured. According to numerical calculations, an rf power above 1.5 MW is expected to be generated in the cavity. Even if all losses are taken into account, a discrepancy between experiment and calculations remains. The power deficit seems to be partly caused by the influence of the stray radiation captured inside the tube. However, the two main reasons are probably an incomplete mode conversion from TE_-28,16 to TE_+76,2 and a large energy spread of the electron beam due to trapped electrons. An increased amount of captured stray radiation resulted in a reduced stability of operation. A single-stage depressed collector was used successfully, increasing the RF output efficiency from 20% to 29%     

Intracavity frequency-doubled green vertical external cavity surface emitting laser

An intracavity frequency-doubled vertical external cavity surface emitting laser (VECSEL) with green light is demonstrated.

The frequency doubling efficiency is about 30%.     

Internal resonantly enhanced frequency doubling of continuous-wave fiber lasers

In this Letter we describe a simple method for frequency doubling in high-power CW fiber lasers that offers the prospect of very high conversion efficiency and high power in the visible wavelength regime. Our approach is based on second harmonic generation in an enhancement resonator within the fiber laser cavity and does not require active cavity length stabilization. This technique has been applied to a cladding-pumped Yb-doped fiber laser to generate 19 W of linearly polarized CW green output at 540 nm, with excellent temporal stability for 90 W of absorbed diode pump power at 975 nm. The prospects for further improvement in performance with respect to conversion efficiency and output power are considered.     

Study of high-power Ka-band second-harmonic gyroklystron amplifier

The self-consistent nonlinear theory of two-cavity high-harmonic gyroklystron amplifier has been developed. The efficiency and gain of a second-harmonic gyroklystron were calculated numerically. The results obtained were used to choose the optimal parameters of the experimental second-harmonic tube. The experimental study was carried out to test high-harmonic amplifier concept. Two-cavity 35 GHz second harmonic gyroklystron with the TE₀₂₁ cavity mode has been designed and tested in pulse operation. Output power of about 260 kW with efficiency 18% and 17 dB gain have been produced at 72 kV beam voltage and 20 A beam current. Bandwidth of about 0.1% has been observed. The restriction of the output power, efficiency, and gain was caused by spurious oscillations excited in the second cavity in the TE₀₁₁ mode at the fundamental cyclotron frequency

A 1.5-MW, 140-GHz, TE28,16-coaxial cavity gyrotron

The design of a 1.5-MW, 140-GHz, TE-_28,16-coaxial cavity gyrotron is presented and results of experimental operation are given. A cavity with a cylindrical outer wall and a radially tapered inner rod with longitudinal corrugations was used. A maximum output power of 1.17 MW has been measured in the design mode with an efficiency of 27.2%. Single-mode operation has been found over a wide range of operating parameters. The experimental values agree well with the results of multimode calculations. Frequency-step tuning has been performed between 115.6 and 164.2 GHz. In particular, an output power of 0.9 MW has ben measured in the TE_25,14 mode at 123.0 GHz and 1.16 MW in the TE_32,18 mode at 158.9 GHz. At frequencies its with strong window reflections the parameter range for which stable operation is possible is reduced significantly. In order to obtain results relevant for a technical realization of a continuously operated gyrotron, a tube with a radial radio frequency (RF)-beam output through two output windows and a single-stage depressed collector has been designed and is under fabrication. A two-step mode conversion scheme-TE- _28,16 to Te_+76.2 to TEM₀₀-which generates two narrowly directed (60° at the launcher) output wavebeams has been chosen for a quasioptical (q,o) mode converter system. A conversion efficiency of 94% is expected
