The use of glasses doped with PbS nanocrystals as intracavity saturable absorbers for passive Q-switching and mode locking
of c-cut Nd:Gd0.7Y0.3VO4, Nd:YVO4, and Nd:GdVO4 lasers is investigated. Q-switching yields pulses as short as 35 ns with an average output power of 435 mW at a repetition
rate of 6–12 kHz at a pump power of 5–6 W. Mode locking through a combination of PbS nanocrystals and a Kerr lens results
in 1.4 ps long pulses with an average output power of 255 mW at a repetition rate of 100 MHz. 相似文献

Upconversion luminescence in triply ionized praseodymium-doped TeO2–Li2O glass using excitation at ∼590 nm into the 1D2 level from a dye laser pumped with the second harmonic of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser has been reported. The mechanism involved
in the upconversion emission observed at ∼480 nm indicates that the most important contribution is energy transfer among praseodymium
ions in pairs followed by the dipole–dipole interaction. The rate-equation model for the emission at ∼480 nm that provides
direct information to determine the energy-transfer rates containing the pair of states involved in the upconversion process
has been explored. 相似文献

In this work, we report 1064 nm laser emission in Nd:YVO4 channel waveguides fabricated by carbon implantation. Typical threshold pump powers (∼808 nm) were ≥45 mW. Maximum conversion
efficiency was 11.5% (29.6% slope efficiency), and up to 9 mW of signal was delivered. Sample lengths of 4 mm were sufficient
to completely absorb the pump power. The special spectral characteristics of this material such as broad absorption band and
superior cross sections compared to the YAG crystal makes it suitable for developing compact sources to be integrated in optoelectronic
devices. 相似文献

A diode-pumped passively mode-locked Nd: CTGG disordered crystal laser has been experimentally demonstrated for the first
time to our knowledge. Mode locked with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror, the laser generated 5.2 ps pulses at a
repetition rate of 88 MHz. After intracavity dispersion compensation, the mode-locked pulses were shortened to 4.3 ps. Multiple
emission wavelengths of the Nd:CTGG laser could be synchronously mode locked under dispersion compensation. 相似文献

In this paper, the output performances at 1331 nm in continuous-wave (CW) operation and the passive Q-switching regime of
a Nd:Gd3Ga5O12(Nd:GGG) laser crystal have been investigated under pumping with diode lasers. A maximum CW output power of 1.5 W was reached
at an incident pump power of 7.5 W; the overall optical-to-optical efficiency and the slope efficiency with respect to the
pump power were 21.5% and 19.4%, respectively. The passive Q-switching regime was achieved with Co2+:LaMgAl11O19 (Co2+:LMA) saturable absorber (SA) crystals. A maximum average output power of 183 mW was recorded with a Co2+:LMA SA with initial transmission T
i of 90%. The pulse energy was 18.7 μJ and the pulse duration was 26.1 ns, which correspond to a pulse peak power of 0.7 kW.
With a Co2+:LMA SA with T
i=81%, the average power decreased to 131 mW. However, the pulse energy increased to 21.4 μJ, the pulse duration was 16.4 ns
and the pulse peak power increased to 1.3 kW. 相似文献

Transient characteristics of upconverted emission (560 nm) of Er3+ in LiNbO3 crystals codoped with 0–7.4 mol% MgO were studied under pulse excitation at 800-nm wavelength. The results show that the
transients display considerable Mg-doping-level-dependent nonexponential behavior and a clear Mg optical-damage-resistance
threshold concentration effect. Below the Mg threshold concentration, the lifetime increases slightly with the increased Mg
concentration. Above the threshold, however, the lifetime drops abruptly by 4–7 times and the nonexponential feature becomes
more evident. It is found that each transient can be fitted by a double-exponential function contributed from isolated and
clustered Er3+ sites. The fit parameters show that doping of MgO above the threshold concentration increases the clustered Er site concentration
and the nonradiative cross relaxation probability. The Mg threshold concentration effect derived from the transients is in
qualitative agreement with that from the fluorescence spectrum measured as a function of the Mg concentration. The effect
of the Mg threshold concentration on the clustered Er site concentration is qualitatively explained on the basis of the microscopic
defect model of MgO:LiNbO3 and is conducted with the Mg site change around the threshold concentration. 相似文献

The creation and the coalescence of inclusions has recently been observed in smectic C* freely suspended films at the temperature
near the smectic C*-cholesteric phase transition. A small finite anchoring energy permits to describe small inclusions by
analytical approximate solutions of dipolar or quadrupolar type. Using the proposed solutions our model enables us to discuss
the coalescence of smallest inclusions and their observed growth.

We directly produced for the first time a high-power 1.06 μm vortex mode from a diode-pumped Nd:GdVO4 bounce amplifier. A maximum output of 17.8 W was achieved for a pump power of 55 W. The corresponding optical efficiency
from the diode to the output was above 30%. 相似文献

A simplified model of an inclusion represented by (+1)-wedge disclination and an accompanying hyperbolic defect ((−1)-wedge
disclination) in smectic C* free standing films is used to describe the early stage of the ordering process of inclusions
into chains. The elastic interaction between inclusions and their associated hyperbolic defects is used to discuss the dynamics
observed experimentally during the inclusion chaining when inclusions are at distances much larger than their radii.

The spectrum behavior evolution and the threshold of random lasing depending on the way of photon walk randomization in an
active random medium were investigated. The following three ways of photon walk randomization were implemented: multiple light
scattering by corundum and silica particles embedded into a solid polymer solution of dye (astrafloxin), multiple light reflection
at sub-millimeter extensive air pores (mean diameter 200 μm) produced in the medium, and the combined action of both these
effects. The most effective lasing is observed in the case of an active medium with air pores and scattering particles in
the interpore space. Such a combined porous scattering medium acts as a network of dielectric waveguides transmitting effectively
the random light. This spatial structure of the random active medium significantly increases the photon path in the medium,
thereby promoting photon multiplication due to stimulated emission. In this combined medium the random lasing reveals the
narrowest spectrum, the lowest threshold, and the highest density of spectral energy in the spectrum maximum. 相似文献

Laser emission obtained from an Yb:YAG single-crystal fiber directly grown by the micro-pulling down technique is demonstrated
for the first time. We achieved 11.2 W of continuous wave (CW) output power at 1031 nm for 55 W of incident pump power at
940 nm. In the Q-switched regime, we obtained pulses as short as 17 ns, for an average power of 2.3 W at 2 kHz corresponding
to an energy of 1.15 mJ. In both cases, the M
2 factor was 2.5. This single-crystal fiber showed performance similar to a standard rod elaborated by the Czochralski method.
The potential of Yb3+-doped single-crystal fibers is presented for scalable high-average and high-peak-power laser systems. 相似文献

A novel technique of controlling the evolution of the filamentation was experimentally demonstrated in an argon gas-filled
tube. The entrance of the filament was heated by a furnace and the other end was cooled with air, which resulted in the temperature
gradient distribution along the tube. The experimental results show that multiple filaments are merged into a single filament
and then no filament by only increasing the temperature at the entrance of the filament. Also, the filament can appear and
disappear after increasing the local temperature and input pulse energy in turn. This technique offers another degree of freedom
to control the filamentation and opens a new way for multi-mJ level monocycle pulse generation through filamentation in the
noble gas. 相似文献

We present a Q-switched microchip laser emitting 1064-nm pulses as short as 100 ps synchronized to a cavity dumped femtosecond
laser emitting 800-nm pulses as short as 80 fs. The synchronization is achieved by presaturating the saturable absorber of
the microchip laser with femtosecond pulses even though both lasers emit at widely separated wavelengths. The mean timing
jitter is 40 ps and thus considerably shorter than the pulse duration of the microchip laser. 相似文献

ZnO is known as one of the best materials for the implementation of the random lasing effect, associated with mirror-less
laser emission in a simultaneously amplifying and highly scattering medium. Normally, the fabrication of this medium requires
a rather complicated procedure of deposition and thermal treatment of ZnO-based films on some specific substrates, yielding
wurtzite-orientation ZnO nanocrystals. We demonstrate a rapid synthesis of highly efficient ZnO-based random lasing spots
on a piece of Zn by employing the phenomenon of laser-induced air breakdown. Being ignited near the surface of a Zn target,
plasma of the air breakdown serves as a local reactor to locally transform its properties and thus form a film of well-packed
20–40 nm ZnO nanospheres. Exhibiting extremely high amplification and scattering, this medium is capable of generating the
random lasing effect within the exciton-based photoluminescent band. 相似文献

Thin films made by PLD from Er:ZBLAN and Nd:Gd3Ga5O12 are micro machined to form optical wave guiding structures using Ti:sapphire and Yb:glass fiber laser radiation. For the
manufacturing of the ridge waveguides grooves are structured by ablation using femtosecond laser radiation. The fluence, the
scanning velocity, the repetition rate, and the orientation of the polarization with respect to the scanning direction are
varied. The resulting structures are characterized using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Damping and
absorption coefficients of the waveguides are determined by observing the light scattered from the waveguides due to droplets
in the thin films and the surface roughness of the structured edges. To discriminate between damping due to droplets and the
structured edges, damping measurements in the non-structured films and the structured waveguides are performed. Ridge waveguides
with non-resonant damping losses smaller than 3 dB/cm are achieved. Due to the high repetition rate of the Yb:glass fiber
laser, the manufacturing time for one waveguide has been decreased by a factor of more than 100 compared to earlier results
achieved with the Ti:sapphire laser. 相似文献

We present a comparative analysis on the growth, the spectroscopic features, and the cw laser action of room-temperature Yb(5%):LiYF4 (YLF) and Yb(10%):KYF4 (KYF) crystals. Optical slope efficiencies of 33% and 52% have been demonstrated for Yb:YLF and Yb:KYF crystals, respectively.
A remarkable wide wavelength tunability from 1.01 to 1.07 μm has been obtained for both laser crystals. 相似文献

Temperature dependence of photoconductivity and persistent photoconductivity of single ZnO nanowires 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Photoelectrical properties of single ZnO nanowires have been investigated using photocurrent–voltage characteristics measurements
varying with excitation photon energy and temperature. It is found that persistent photoconductivity (PPC) exists, and the
PPC decreases with decreasing temperature. The temperature dependence of the PPC effect indicates that thermally activated
return of electrons from shallow traps is responsible for the PPC phenomenon. The photosensitivity is found to be linear with
the applied voltage, and it increases with decreasing temperature. A temperature dependence of photoconductivity gain was
introduced to explain the experimental results. 相似文献
