We report on generation of 946 nm laser pulses of a few nanosecond duration and up to 3.7 kW peak power from a compact diode-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. This power is 2.5 times as much as what previously has been obtained from this type of a laser. The short pulses with the record high peak power may be particularly attractive for laser range finding type applications. 相似文献

A Nd:YAG laser passively Q-switched by a Cr:YAG showed a high single pulse energy of 53.0 mJ and 5.1 MW peak power. The laser was pumped by quasi-continuous-wave diode bars from single side. The Q-switched pulse had optical-to-optical efficiency of 12% and average temporal duration of 10.4 ns when Cr:YAG with initial transmission of 9.0% was used. Intense pumping as well as very low initial transmission of the saturable absorber gave very high peak power. 相似文献

A depolarization phenomenon in an electro-optical crystal in a quasi-three-level 946 nm Nd:YAG laser is observed. A compensation of the thermal effects in electro-optical crystals is achieved by employing a quarter-wave plate, with one optical axis parallel to the laser polarization. This technique allows for the production of an electro-optically Q-switched 946 nm Nd:YAG laser at 1 k Hz. A maximum output power of 350 m W at 1 k Hz repetition frequency and 11 ns pulse duration are achieved with an output coupler of 10% transmission under the incident pump power of 11.1 W, corresponding to a peak power of ~32 k W. 相似文献

Generation of 946 nm radiation from a commercially available, flashlamp-pumped Nd:YAG laser was investigated. By suppression of the high-gain 1.064 m transition and with a specially designed cooling system, a stable emission at 946 nm was achieved in the temperature range 300–240 K. At a repetition rate of 10 Hz laser output powers of 100mW and 500 mW were obtained at room temperature and 240 K respectively. The temperature dependence of unsaturated gain, slope efficiency and pumping threshold were determined.S. Dimov is supported by a fellowship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation 相似文献

High-peak-power, short-pulse-width diode pumped 946 nm Nd:YAG laser in passively Q-switching operation with Cr4+:YAG is reported. The highest average output power reaches 3.4 W using the Cr4+:YAG with initial transmissivity T0=95%. When the T0=90% Cr4+:YAG is employed, the maximum peak power of 31.4 kW with a pulse width of 8.3 ns at 946 nm is generated. 相似文献

Nd:YAG laser pumped at 946 nm 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A Nd:YAG laser crystal was pumped at 946 nm and lased at 1064 nm. This pump-lase format was investigated in order to reduce the quantum defect between the pump and laser photons as compared to other pump schemes of this material. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first realization of this scheme. A room temperature absorption coefficient and linewidth of approximately 0.075 cm(-1) and approximately 1 nm for 1% at. Nd(+3) concentrations were measured for the 946 nm absorption line. Those parameters impose both narrow-bandwidth pumping and a long absorption path. By increasing the laser crystal temperature above room temperature, the absorption cross sections at 946 and 938 nm increase due to enhanced thermal population of the upper energy level of the ground manifold. The possibility of exploiting this phenomenon to enhance the pump absorption is also discussed. 相似文献

The differences between the performances of electro-optical (EO) and acousto-optical (AO) Q-switched, diode pumped Nd:GdVO4 laser at high repetition rates were detailed in this paper. The results revealed that EO Q-switch was more favorable to obtain
short pulse width and high peak power laser than AO Q-switch under high repetition rate operation. The minimum pulse widths
at 100 kHz were 20.2 ns under EO operation and 28.7 ns under AO operation, corresponding to peak powers of 3.1 kW and 2.2
kW, respectively. The corresponding values at 10 kHz were 5.3 ns, 9.0 ns and 77.4 kW, 45.6 kW, respectively. 相似文献

The 2940 nm Er:YAG laser Q-switched mechanically by means of a rotating mirror was developed. It generated the output pulses of up to 30 mJ energy, below 300 ns duration and record repetition rate of 25 Hz. The developed laser was effectively used for the investigation of laser beam interaction with selected organic matter simulants. 相似文献

We present for the first time a Nd:YAG laser emitting at 1064 nm intracavity pumped by a 946 nm diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser.
A 885 nm laser diode is used to pump the first Nd:YAG crystal emitting at 946 nm, and the second Nd:YAG laser emitting at
1064 nm intracavity pumped at 946 nm. We achieved an output power of 7.97 W at 1064 nm for an absorbed pump power at 946 nm
of 9.55 W, corresponding to an optical efficiency of 83.4%. The beam quality M2 quality factor is about 1.1 at the maximum output power. 相似文献

Single axial mode operation (<200 MHz optical bandwidth) of a high repetition rate periodically poled lithium niobate optical
parametric oscillator (OPO) has been obtained at signal wavelengths between 1.46 μm and 1.64 μm. OPO signal slope efficiencies
of 35% have been measured for repetition rates of 5–20 kHz. Single mode operation required spectral narrowing of both the
pump laser and the OPO. A simple technique of prelase Q-switching was implemented to reduce the optical bandwidth of the cw diode-pumped Nd:YAG pump laser to <1 GHz. A single intracavity
étalon was then sufficient to ensure single frequency oscillation of the OPO signal. The OPO output was stable with a smooth
spatial profile and an M
2 value of 1.3.

We demonstrate a 980 nm single-mode Yb-doped fiber laser with a 946 nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser used as the pump source. The experimental arrangement exploited a 36.5 cm length of fiber and used the output from both ends of the cavity, providing a total average output power of 100 mW with a slope efficiency of 38%. In order to increase the coupling efficiency and the practicability of the fiber laser, another experimental setup with single ended output was studied, producing an average output power of 80 mW from a fiber length of 23.5 cm. The pulse duration is 10 ns at a repetition frequency of 16 kHz. The linewidth of the laser is 4 nm, ranging from 977 to 981 nm. 相似文献

We demonstrated an efficient and compact, diode-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser operation at 1.064 μm wavelength with high repetition rate, using Cr4+:YAG as saturable absorber, formed with a simple flat–flat resonator. The maximum CW output power of 4.05 W was obtained at the incident pump power of 8 W. For Q-switched operation, the maximum average output power was measured to be 1.4 W with the corresponding repetition rate of 200 kHz, the pulse width of 60 ns when the initial transmission of Cr4+:YAG crystal was 85%. The shortest pulse width of 12 ns, the largest pulse energy of 36 μJ and the highest peak power of 3 kW were obtained when the Cr4+:YAG crystal with an initial transmission of 60% was used. 相似文献

Through reasonable coating design to suppress the 1064 nm strongest emission line as well as the 1318.8 nm one, a 1338 nm high-power Nd:YAG quasi-continuous wave (QCW) laser pumped with a Kr lamp has been successfully developed. As high as 102 W of average output power at the 1338 nm single wavelength has been obtained with the overall and slope efficiencies of 4.6% and 6.3%, respectively, when the average pump power is 2200 W. Its threshold power is about 400 W. 相似文献
