High Beam Quality Green Generation with Output 140W Based on a Thermally-Near-Unstable Flat-Flat Resonator

By using a diode-side-pumped Q-switched Nd:YAG rod laser based on a thermally-near-unstable fiat-fiat resonator, an intracavity-frequency-doubled green beam generation is investigated. Output power 140 W is obtained at a repetition rate of 10kHz and a pulse width of 110ns. The green beam quality factors Mx^2 and My^2, which are measured by a laser beam analyser, are 10.65 and 10.85, respectively, at output power of 124W.     

High－Power Blue Light Generation by External Frequency Doubling of an Optical Parametric Oscillator ＊

We report on an all-solid-state high-power quasi-continuous blue light source by the frequency doubling of asignal wave from an optical parametric oscillator (OPO). A 50-mm-long LiB305 (LBO) crystal is used for theOPO, which is pumped by a diode-pumped Nd:YAG green laser (1OkHz, 50ns). Tunable blue emission in a newnonlinear crystal BiB306 (BiBO) is obtained with a wavelength range from 450 to 495 nm. The average power ofthe signal output is as high as 9.3 W from 924 to 970nm. The maximum output of the blue laser with the secondharmonic walk-off compensation is 1.3W average power at 470nm for 6.2W of OPO signal light at 940nm.     

Mid-infrared generation based on a periodically poled LiNbO3 optical parametric oscillator

We report a nanosecond Nd:YVO_4-pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled LiNbO_3 (PPLN). Tuning is achieved in this experiment by varying the temperature and period of the PPLN. The design of double-pass singly resonant oscillator (DSRO) and confocal cavity enables the OPO threshold to be lowered considerably, resulting in a simple, compact, all-solid-state configuration with the mid-infrared idler powers of up to 466mW at 3.41μm.

Mode couplings of a semiconductor nanowire scanning across a photonic crystal nanocavity

The position-dependent mode couplings between a semiconductor nanowire(NW) and a planar photonic crystal(PPC) nanocavity are studied. By scanning an NW across a PPC nanocavity along the hexagonal lattice's Γ– M and M – K directions, the variations of resonant wavelengths, quality factors, and mode volumes in both fundamental and second-order resonant modes are calculated, implying optimal configurations for strong mode-NW couplings and light-NW interactions. For the fundamental(second-order) resonant mode, scanning an NW along the M – K(Γ– M) direction is preferred, which supports stronger light-NW interactions with larger NW-position tolerances and higher quality factors simultaneously. The simulation results are confirmed experimentally with good agreements.     

Investigation on Performance of High Repetition Diode-Pumped Heat-Capacity Nd：YAG Laser

We demonstrate the improvements of both beam quality and thermal depolarization loss of an all-solid-state heat-capacity Nd:YAG laser with repetition rate of 50Hz, for the first time to our best knowledge, compared with the conventional steady-state laser. The beam quality of the heat-capacity laser has been improved three times higher than the conventional steady-state laser within the lasing periods of 60s. The depolarization loss caused by thermo-optical effects which is definitely considerable in steady-state Nd:YAG laser has almost not been observed under heat-capacity operation. Design and operations of the all-solid-state heat-capacity Nd: YAG laser with average output power of 25 W with repetition 50 Hz are also studied with the optical-to-optical efficiency of 33.3%.
