By taking into account the single-photon absorption (SPA) and two-photon absorption (TPA) processes of GaAs, the Gaussian spatial distributions of the intracavity photon density and the initial population-inversion density, and the pumping and the spontaneous emission during the pulse formation, the new normalized rate equations of a GaAs saturable absorber Q-switched laser are solved. The key parameters of an optimally coupled GaAs saturable absorber Q-switched laser are determined, including the optimal normalized coupling parameter and the optimal normalized GaAs saturable absorber parameters, which can maximize the pulse energy, and a group of general curves are generated for the first time, which clearly show the dependence of the optimal key parameters on the parameters of the gain medium, the GaAs saturable absorber, and the resonator. In addition, the influence including the space variation, the pumping and the spontaneous emission is also shown. Sample calculations for a diode-pumped Nd3+:YVO4 laser with a GaAs saturable absorber are presented to demonstrate the use of the curves and the relevant formulas. 相似文献

Compared with a single passively Q-switched laser, a double passively Q-switched laser with a GaAs saturable absorber and a Cr4+-doped saturable absorber can produce more symmetric and shorter pulses with high pulse peak power. New normalized coupled rate equations for a double passively Q-switched laser with both a GaAs saturable absorber and a Cr4+-doped saturable absorber are solved numerically, where the single-photon absorption (SPA) and two-photon absorption (TPA) processes of GaAs are combined. The Gaussian spatial distributions of the intracavity photon density and the initial population-inversion density are considered. The optimization of a double passively Q-switched laser to obtain the shortest pulse width is performed, and a group of general curves are generated for the first time. The curves clearly show the dependence of the optimal normalized parameters on the parameters of the gain medium, the GaAs saturable absorber, the Cr4+-doped saturable absorber and the spatial distributions of the intracavity photon density. Sample calculations for a diode-pumped Nd3+:YVO4 laser with both a GaAs saturable absorber and a Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber are presented to demonstrate the use of the curves and the related formulas. 相似文献

In this study we present an all-normal-dispersion Yb-doped fiber laser passively mode-locked with topological insulator(Bi2Te3) saturable absorber. The saturable absorber device is fabricated by depositing Bi2Te3 on a tapered fiber through using pulsed laser deposition(PLD) technology, which can give rise to less non-saturable losses than most of the solution processing methods. Owing to the long interaction length, Bi2Te3 is not exposed to high optical power, which allows the saturable absorber device to work in a high power regime. The modulation depth of this kind of saturable absorber is measured to be 10%. By combining the saturable absorber device with Yb-doped fiber laser, a mode-locked pulse operating at a repetition rate of 19.8 MHz is achieved. The 3-d B spectral width and pulse duration are measured to be 1.245 nm and317 ps, respectively. 相似文献

Femtosecond light pulse generation in a ring laser and its propagation properties are described. The basic principles and some theoretical aspects of the pulse generation process in dye lasers are summarized taking into account the influence of the amplifier, of the saturable absorber, of the glass path and of mirrors. Phase modulation arising from multilayer dielectric mirrors has been calculated and measured by determination of an equivalent intracavity glass path length. The main source of phase modulation (chirp) seems to be the saturable absorber. 相似文献

The influence of the relaxation time of a saturable absorber on the dynamics of a quasi-continuous ring laser is investigated. It is shown that in a dye laser with a fast absorber, bistability arises; thus two multimode regimes coexist. The regime of shallow stochastic modulation is established spontaneously. Transition to the mode-locking regime accompanied by a sharp increase in the number of generated modes is feasible only under the action of an initiating pulse (hard mode locking). The analytical criterion for hard locking has been obtained. If the criterion is not satisfied, the only stable regime of a laser is mode locking. In this case the transient process is the longer the smaller the relaxation time of a saturable absorber. 相似文献

The expressions of pulse characteristics such as output energy, peak power, and pulse width are obtained by solving the coupled rate equations describing the operation of GaAs semiconductor saturable absorber Q-switched lasers. The key parameters of an optimally coupled GaAs saturable absorber Q-switched laser are determined and several design curves are generated from these expressions for the first time. These key parameters include the optimal normalized coupling parameters and the optimal normalized saturable absorber parameters that maximize the output energy or maximize the peak power, and the corresponding normalized energy, normalized peak power, and normalized pulse width. Using the expressions and design curves, one can predict the pulse characteristics and perform the design of an optimally coupled GaAs saturable absorber Q-switched laser. 相似文献

The intracavity photon density is assumed to be of Gaussian spatial distributions and its longitudinal variation is also considered in the rate equations for a laser diode(LD)end-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser with GaAs saturable absorber.These space-dependent rate equations are solved numerically.The dependences of pulse width,pulse repetition rate,single-pulse energy,and peak power on incident pump power are obtained.In the experiment,the LD end-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser with GaAs saturable absorber is realized and the experimental results are consistent with the numerical solutions. 相似文献

We theoretically and experimentally study different techniques to control the pulse width of a laser-diode-pumped passively Q-switched solid-state laser. It is shown that varying the laser beam radius in the saturable absorber and the pump beam radius in the gain medium provide an efficient means to control the pulse width. The experiments performed on a laser-diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 laser passively Q-switched by a Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber are consistent with the theoretical calculations obtained from the rate-equations model, in which the intracavity photon density is assumed to be Gaussian spatial distribution, and the longitudinal variation of the intracavity photon density and the pump beam spatial distribution are also considered. 相似文献

The temporal characteristics of the Q-switched Nd-glass laser have been numerically investigated. A mathematical model describing the dynamic emission and different physical processes has been adapted. This model allows the investigation of the nonlinear saturable absorber effects on the mode characteristics of the Nd-glass laser, and studying the affects of the laser input parameters on the output laser pulse characteristics.Numerical solutions of a nonlinear rate equation system predict the generation of nanosecond pulses of Q-switched Nd-glass laser. The solutions estimate the laser density and the relative population inversion of the Nd-glass laser rod and saturable absorber for different emission regimes. The estimated results of the laser output pulse characteristics are in a good agreement with the other calculated and experimental results. 相似文献

Wide-bandwidth pulses were generated with a dispersion-managed erbium-doped passively mode-locked fiber laser based on a graphene saturable absorber. The graphene saturable absorber was composed of a tapered fiber deposited with graphene fabricated by liquid-phase exfoliation. The output pulse had a 3-dB bandwidth of 13.6 nm, which is the widest spectrum ever achieved with graphene-tapered-fiber saturable absorbers. 相似文献

We study theoretically and experimentally different methods to control the pulses emitted by solid-state lasers passively
Q-switched by a saturable absorber. We explore one- and two-axis laser schemes allowing to control the pulse duration, which
is ruled by the saturation powers of the transitions in the absorber and in the gain medium. In one-axis lasers, it is shown
that the adjustment of the pump and laser beam sizes in the active medium and in the absorber provides an efficient means
to control the pulse temporal shape and duration. Furthermore, a two-axis laser cavity supporting so-called forked-eigenstate
operation permits to freely adjust the parts of the mode power which circulate in the gain medium and in the absorber. In
this case, a lengthening of the pulse duration up to 500 ns is obtained with an increase of the average output power. The
theoretical results obtained by using rate equations adapted to each cavity geometry are in close agreement with experiments
performed on a diode-pumped Nd3+:YAG laser Q-switched by a Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber. The relevance of the different techniques to control the pulse durations in the framework of potential
applications is discussed.

By considering the Gaussian spatial distributions of the intracavity photon density and the initial population-inversion density, the coupled rate equations for a diode-pumped passively Q-switched laser with V3+:YAG saturable absorber are given. These coupled rate equations are solved numerically and the key parameters of an optimally coupled passively Q-switched laser with V3+:YAG at 1342 nm are determined. These key parameters include the parameters of the gain medium, the saturable absorber and the resonator, which can maximize the pulse energy of singly Q-switched pulse. The optimal calculations for a diode-pumped passively Q-switched a-Nd:GdVO4 laser with V3+:YAG saturable absorber are presented to demonstrate the numerical simulation applicable. 相似文献

We present a quantitative experimental study of the effects of pump power and saturable absorber concentration on the performance of a colliding pulse modelocked dye laser. Pulses as short as 47 fs were generated without the use of any additional (intracavity or extracavity) pulse compression scheme. The laser has a well defined stability region in the pump power × saturable absorber concentration plane, and exhibits a strong bistable behavior in the limits of this stability region. 相似文献

We report on two-wavelength operation of a CPM ring dye laser employing Rhodamine 6G as gain medium and a new styryl dye as saturable absorber. Two trains of femtosecond pulses at different wavelengths are simultaneously generated under proper alignment of the laser. The secondary pulse train is attributed to the laser action of the absorber dye. Auto- and cross-correlation measurements are performed to determine the temporal characteristics of the laser in the double mode-locking regime. 相似文献

A quantum-dot-based saturable absorber has been demonstrated to initiate the generation of femtosecond pulses from a passively mode-locked solid-state laser. Control and tuning of the pulse duration from 58 ps to 158 fs was achieved. The 158 fs transform-limited pulses at 1280 nm are the shortest pulses that were produced from the Cr:forsterite laser passively mode locked by an InAs/InGaAs quantum-dot semiconductor saturable absorber mirror. 相似文献

The femtosecond pulse generation in a c.w. pumped linear passive mode-locked rhodamine 6G-DODCI (3,3-diethyloxadicarbo cyanine iodide) dye laser is studied experimentally. Colliding pulse mode-locking (CPM) is achieved by placing the saturable absorber jet in the centre of the linear ring resonator. The laser performance is studied as a function of the saturable absorber concentration and of the absorber jet detuning from the central position (CPM position). Without a prism pair in the resonator pulse durations down to 140 fs were obtained. Detuning the absorber jet from the CPM position resulted in a trailing pulse tail ofcirca 900 fs duration. The dependence of the laser performance on the prism pair positioning is investigated experimentally and analysed theoretically. At the prism pair balanced position, stable pulses of about 50 fs duration were generated independent of the lateral detuning of the absorber jet out of the resonator centre. The dependence of the laser wavelength on the absorber concentration is compared with theoretical predictions. In an appendix the ray-tracing inside the linear resonator is simulated by an ABCD matrix calculation for Gaussian beams. 相似文献

By simultaneously using both an acoustic-optic (AO) modulator and a Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber in the cavity, for the first time, a diode-pumped doubly Q-switched Nd:GdVO4 laser has been realized. The pulse duration is obviously compressed in contrast to the actively acoustic-optic Q-switched laser. By considering the Gaussian transversal distribution of the intracavity photon density and the longitudinal distribution of the photon density along the cavity axis as well as the influence of turnoff time of the acoustic-optic (AO) Q-switch, we provide the coupled rate equations for a diode-pumped doubly Q-switched Nd:GdVO4 laser with both an acoustic-optic (AO) modulator and a Cr4+:YAG saturable absorber. These coupled rate equations are solved numerically, and the dependence of pulse width, pulse energy and peak power on the incident pump power at different pulse repetition rates is obtained. The numerical solutions of equations agree well with the experimental results.This revised version was published online in August 2005 with a corrected cover date. 相似文献
