Coherent radiation at 87.78 nm is generated by four-wave mixing in argon gas. Radiation of a mode-locked Nd:YLF laser at =1053 nm is regeneratively amplified at 1 kHz repetition rate. After frequency quadrupling in consecutive LBO and BBO crystals, the UV radiation at 263.35 nm is focused in Ar in front of a hollow capillary. Effects of gas density on the XUV intensity are discussed. 相似文献

High harmonic generation at 1 kHz repetition rate is reported. A piezoelectric pulsed valve together with a femtosecond Ti:Sapphire
laser both operating at 1 kHz are employed to generate high harmonic radiation in xenon and argon. The characteristics of
the valve have been analyzed by using a fast ion gauge and a time-of-flight mass-spectrometer.

We report a simple approach to amplify Ti:sapphire femtosecond pulses to moderate energy levels by a chirped regenerative amplifier. The seed pulses are broaden naturally because of the material dispersion of system components in regenerative cavity. The off-focusing Ti:sapphire crystal avoids effectively the optical damage. It sustains amplification over a wavelength range from 775 nm to more than 810 nm with a birefringent filter and an oscillation bandwidth of 7.7 nm, and produces 2.1 ps chirped output pulse energy of 100 uJ at 1.1-mJ pumping energy. This system shows good performances in stability and efficiency with the benefits of two thin-film polarizers and TEMoo mode pumping laser. 相似文献

This Letter presents results from a new master-oscillator, power-amplifier pulse-burst laser system demonstrating ultrahigh pulse energies greater than 2.0 J/pulse at 1064?nm with interpulse separations of 100?μs (10?kHz) for burst durations of 100 pulses. Each pulse generates peak powers exceeding 130?MW and an average power of approximately 20?kW is generated over a 100-pulse-burst. Pulse energies decrease by less than 10% over a 100 sequential pulses, demonstrating negligible "droop" over long-duration pulse trains. Second-harmonic generation of 532?nm with conversion efficiency greater than 50% is demonstrated for 100-pulse-burst durations. 相似文献

We have experimentally investigated several hundred kHz repetition rate 1,550-nm nanosecond pulses amplification in Er–Yb co-doped fiber amplifier (EYDFA). The experimental setup has three stage fiber amplifiers. At the output of the second stage EYDFA, Yb3+ ions induced amplified spontaneous emission (Yb-ASE) is not observed owing to the low pump power. In the third stage EYDFA, a simultaneously seeded 1,064-nm continuous-wave laser is used to control Yb-ASE. Without any additional 1,064-nm signal, significantly backward Yb-ASE which caused loss-induced heat accumulation at the input port of the pump combiner can be observed. The monitored temperature at the input port of the pump combiner rapidly grows from 30 to 80 °C when the pump power is turned from 20 to 32 W. When a 196-mW forward 1,064-nm laser is added, the monitored backward Yb-ASE power is significantly declined, and the monitored temperature is kept below 35 °C. But, the additional signal caused a large power fraction at 1,064 nm in the output laser. In our experiment at the maximum pump power of 48.5 W, the total output power is 20 W with ~6.4-W 1,550-nm pulsed laser and ~13-W 1,064-nm continuous-wave laser. 相似文献

We show efficient generation of mid-IR pulses tunable between 1 and 5?μm from 100?kHz class femtosecond systems. The concept can be applied to various sources, particularly based on Ti:sapphire and the newly evolving Yb+ lasers. The mid-IR pulses are generated as the idler of a collinear optical parametric amplifier pumped by the laser fundamental. The seed for this amplifier is the idler of a previous amplification stage pumped with the second harmonic and seeded with a visible continuum. This enhances the energy and allows us to influence the bandwidth of the final output. Pulses with microjoule energy and Fourier limits of 50?fs are achieved. 相似文献

We report on the generation of picosecond optical pulses around 1.55 m using a tuneable actively mode-locked erbium-doped fibre ring laser. Pulse widths of less than 10 ps have been achieved within the wavelength range 1518 to 1570 nm at a pulse repetition rate of 20 GHz. Pulse trains with lower repetition rates have been generated using electrical square-wave signals for driving the electrooptic modulator, resulting in <20 ps pulse widths. The implementation of an all polarization-preserving fibre ring cavity enabled stable and reproducible operation of the laser. Minimization of the overall ring dispersion offers tuneability at nearly constant repetition rate throughout the whole wavelength range. Simple analytic expressions are given that allow for optimization of the ring laser performance with respect to output power, relaxation oscillations and wavelength tuneability at constant repetition rate. 相似文献

Most of today’s industrial Nd:YAG lasers use fibre-optic beam delivery. In such lasers, fibre core diameter is an important consideration in deploying a beam delivery system. Using a smaller core diameter fibre allows higher irradiances at focus position, less degradation of beam quality, and a larger stand-off distance. In this work, we have put efforts to efficiently deliver the laser output of ‘ceramic reflector’-based long pulse Nd:YAG laser through a 200 μm core diameter optical fibre and successfully delivered up to 60 J of pulse energy with 90% transmission efficiency, using a GRADIUM (axial gradient) plano-convex lens to sharply focus down the beam on the end face of the optical fibre and fibre end faces have been cleaved to achieve higher surface damage thresholds. 相似文献

Fiber-based optical-parametric chirped-pulse amplification is reported at 1μm in a microstructured fiber in the femtosecond regime. The signal has been highly stretched by an ?ffner triplet and then amplified with an all-fiber, pulsed-pump, fiber optical-parametric amplifier. More than 30dB gain has been achieved over 8.3nm, and the amplified signal has been recompressed. 相似文献

We demonstrate passive mode locking of a Nd:vanadate (Nd:YVO4) laser to repetition rates of up to 13 GHz. With Ti:sapphire pumping, we achieved mode locking at 13 GHz with 310 mW of average
output power and pulse widths of 9.5 ps. With diode pumping, we achieved mode locking at a repetition rate of 12.6 GHz with
198 mW of average output power and a pulse duration of 8.3 ps.

Progresses on the development of a high repetition rate mid-IR laser source suitable for the next generation of high-field physics experiments are reported. The presented optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) source currently delivers carrier-envelope phase (CEP)-stable 67-fs duration optical pulses with up to 18-μJ output energy at 160-kHz repetition rate. The focusability of the output beam (M2 ~2) enables peak intensities exceeding 10 14 W/cm2 and the record output energy stability-below 1% power fluctuation over 4.5 h makes this source a key enabler for the strong field physics community. 相似文献

At PSI we are investigating the technique of decelerating an existing very intense secondary beam of surface
+ (4 MeV) to an energy of 10 eV using appropriate moderators. These
+ can then be used as a source of a tertiary beam of low energy muons with tunable kinetic energy between 10 eV and 10 keV.With a 1000 A layer of solid Argon deposited on an Al substrate we obtain a moderation efficiency (with respect to the number of incoming surface
+) of the order of 10–4.Results of our investigations and the present status of the project are presented together with future plans and possibilities. 相似文献

Thin films of yttria stabilized zirconia were deposited onto silicon substrates using high repetition rate picosecond pulse
lasers. The applied lasers covered the repetition rate range from 10 kHz to 4 MHz. We found that the laser pulse overlapping
which results from increased repetition rates led to considerable changes in the ablation process. Defect formation and local
heating lead to lower ablation thresholds and, with sufficiently high repetition rates, to melting of the target and even
to thermal evaporation. We found that yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) films deposited with picosecond pulses at 1064 nm wavelength
below repetition rates of 2 MHz have rough, nanostructured morphology and the same atomic ratio of yttrium and zirconium as
the target. Films deposited with 2 MHz and higher repetition rates with high number of overlapping pulses are very smooth,
but are yttrium deficient, providing evidence of the importance of the thermal processes. 相似文献

Stable ultrafast laser sources at multi-GHz repetition rates are important for various application areas, such as optical sampling, frequency comb metrology, or advanced high-speed return-to-zero telecom systems. We review SESAM-mode-locked Er,Yb:glass lasers operating in the 1.5 μm spectral region at multi-GHz repetition rates, discussing the key improvements that have enabled increasing the repetition rate up to 100 GHz. We also present further improved results with shorter pulse durations from a 100 GHz Er,Yb:glass laser. With an improved SESAM design we achieved 1.1 ps pulses with up to 30 mW average output power. Moreover, we discuss for the first time the importance of beam quality deteriorations arising from frequency-degenerate higher order spatial modes in such lasers. 相似文献
