理论分析了激活介质热效应对端面泵浦固体激光器激光振荡模式分布的影响,并以光纤耦合半导体激光器端面泵浦Nd∶YAG激光器实验研究了激活介质热效应对激光振荡模式的影响。实验结果表明:由于热效应,基模的模体积随泵浦功率的增加而变大,基模在模式竞争中占优;在泵浦光轴线偏离几何腔轴时,基模光斑中心位置朝泵浦光轴线所在位置移动,偏离量与泵浦光轴线的偏离量近似成线性关系。利用实验结果指导腔调节,可使泵浦光轴线与几何腔轴精确重合,获得了椭圆率为0.98、M2因子为1.01的基模输出。 相似文献

Stability and tuning characteristics of continuous-wave optical parametric oscillators (CW OPOs) are affected by various thermal
effects arising from optical absorption in nonlinear crystals. In this paper, we present an experimental study of such effects
in a singly resonant CW OPO. The OPO operates in the 3-μm mid-infrared region and it is based on a MgO-doped periodically
poled lithium niobate crystal. We focus our study on two thermally induced phenomena that have been recently reported to exist
in singly resonant CW OPOs: optical bi-stability and thermal self-locking. Thermal self-locking effect, which is known to
alter the stability and tuning properties of doubly and triply resonant CW OPOs, is shown to be also of importance in singly
resonant OPOs. We report the stability and tuning characteristics of a thermally loaded OPO and discuss a simple temperature-tuning
method that can be used to scan the OPO idler frequency continuously over several THz. 相似文献

The increase in the circulating signal and idler fields that occurs in a high- Q doubly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) as it approaches resonance results in a small increase in the crystal temperature owing to absorption of the generated fields. The temperature change affects the refractive index of the crystal and alters the optical path length of the cavity. This effect may lead to self-frequency locking of the OPO to a specific resonance of the signal and idler fields, and it also results in peculiarities in the transient response of the system as it is scanned through resonance. We show that the experimentally observed effects are consistent with the results of a numerical model of the OPO. 相似文献

We report the demonstration of a cw AgGaS(2) optical parametric oscillator (OPO). The subharmonic (3omega ? 2omega + omega) OPO is configured as a doubly resonant oscillator with weak pump enhancement. The temperature-tuned, noncritically phase-matched crystal is pumped by a diode laser at lambda(p) approximately 845 nm . Oscillation at lambda(s) approximately 1267 nm and lambda(i) approximately 2535 nm is observed at an input threshold power of 60 mW. Crystal thermal loading induces a robust passive self-frequency stabilization of any single-axial-mode pair to the OPO cavity resonance. The conversion efficiency is limited by thermal effects to 2% for a 200-mW pump input. 相似文献

We report on a self-guided operation of a green-pumped singly resonant continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator with
a bulk MgO-doped PPLN crystal. It is achieved by increasing the OPO cavity length beyond the stability boundary so that the
OPO can only oscillate with formation of a thermally induced waveguide inside the crystal. The effects of the thermal waveguide
on the OPO performance are studied by measuring output power characteristics at different cavity lengths. Improvement of spatial
mode quality and stability of output power by self-guiding is demonstrated. Measurement of temporal characteristics proves
that formation of the waveguide originates from the photo-thermal effect in the nonlinear crystal by absorption of pump power. 相似文献

The resonator length of an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is normally made a short as possible to minimize the signal-buildup time and maximize the output energy. We have found that, when a doubly resonant OPO is pumped by a multilongitudinal-mode beam, its output energy has a significant maximum when its optical length matches that of the pump source, even if this length is much greater than the shortest possible for the OPO. We have observed this effect in a ZnGeP>(2)-based OPO and reproduced it in numerical simulations. 相似文献

We present a high-power 1.53 μm laser based on intracavity KTA-OPO driven by diode-end-pumped acousto-optical Q-switched YVO4/Nd:YVO4 composite. The composite crystal was utilized for reducing the thermal effect, and the mode mismatch compensating OPO cavity was designed for efficient OPO conversion. The output power of eye-safe laser at 1535 nm was up to 4.4 W with the pump power of 27 W, corresponding to a diode-to-signal conversion efficiency of 16.3%. To our knowledge, this is the highest output power in diode-end-pumped circumstances. In the experiment, the strong yellow light generated by Raman conversion and frequency doubling in the KTA crystal was observed. 相似文献

Frequency-stable operation of a diode-pumped continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator (OPO) of RbTiOAsO(4) is demonstrated. Piezoelectric and fast electro-optic control of the optical length of the two-mirror OPO cavity (resonant for the pump and the idler waves) compensates for thermal changes in the refractive index of the OPO crystal (induced by absorption of pump light) and acoustic perturbations of the cavity length. Pumped by 405mW of the 810-nm output of a GaAlAs masterf-oscillator-tapered-amplifier diode laser system, the OPO generates a power-stable single-frequency signal wave at 1.24microm with an output of 84mW and a spectral bandwidth of less than 10MHz. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that shared cavity optical parametric oscillator (OPO) could improve power stability in comparison with that of coupled cavity OPO. By theoretically calculating the spectral transmissions induced by the etalon effect, it has been found that the shared cavity OPO had much wider transmission bandwidth than that of coupled OPO. The corresponding experimental results agreed with the theoretical analysis. Furthermore, the OPO and fundamental laser resonator have nearly the same longitudinal mode spacing in the shared cavity configuration. The above two factors can account for the improved performance of the shared OPO operation. 相似文献

We report a continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled RbTiOAsO(4) (PPRTA). The singly resonant OPO, which is located within a Ti:sapphire laser, has a high-finesse signal cavity and delivers a maximum output power of 270 mW to the nonresonant idler wave at 2.92mum , through a 4.5-mm PPRTA crystal. For room-temperature operation and a crystal with a 30-mu;m grating period, pump tuning over 838-848 nm results in OPO tuning over 1.13-1.27mum (signal) and 2.53-3.26mum (idler), limited by the bandwidth of optical coatings. PPRTA exhibits thermal properties superior to those of periodically poled LiNbO(3) . 相似文献

We present a 532 nm-pumped singly-resonant cw optical parametric oscillator based on MgO-doped PPLN with a minimum threshold
pump power of 0.3 W. The OPO with a two-mirror standing-wave cavity is optimized by using a tunable diode laser on the path
of the resonant signal beam. The maximum output power is 200 mW at an idler wavelength near 1330 nm at a pump power of 2 W.
We report the degradation of the output power and beam characteristics at high pump power indicating a strong thermal lensing
in the crystal. The continuous tuning range of the OPO is measured to be 800 MHz which is close to 90% of the free spectral
range of the OPO cavity. 相似文献
