Frequency Stabilization of Pulsed Injection-Seeded OPO Based on Optical Heterodyne Technique

A frequency stabilizing system for a pulsed injection seeded 1550 nm optical parametric oscillator(OPO) at 20 Hz repetition rate is demonstrated.The optical heterodyne method is used to measure the frequency difference between the seed laser and the OPO output.Using the frequency difference as the error signal,a proportionalintegral controller in combination with a scanner is applied to stably match the OPO cavity length to the seed laser frequency.The root-mean-square(rms) error of the frequency discrimination method is 0.07 MHz according to a ‘frequency shifting-chopping-beat' evaluation.The frequency fluctuation of the frequency-stabilized OPO is0.29 MHz(rms),and the Allan deviation is less than 20 k Hz for averaging time of more than 3 s.     

Laser output of radial-slab solid-state laser

In this letter, numerical simulation and experimental study of a radial-slab solid-state laser are presented. The laser includes four crossing-slabs pumped by four Xe flashlamps. The numerical simulation of coherent intensity in the near field and the far field indicates that the laser with the structure can improve the quality of output beam compared with incoherent beam combination. The radial-slab solid-state laser is fabricated, and initial experiments are carried out at a pulse repetition of 1 Hz. Nine beams in the near field and one combined beam in the far field are obtained in our initial experiment. The experimental results are consistent with the numerical analysis in the coherent condition. The results show that coherent beam combination is obtained by this laser.
