Stimulated Raman conversion of radiation from a YAG:Nd laser with wavelengths of 1.319, 1.338, and 1.357 µm in a barium nitrate crystal

We have studied stimulated Raman (SRS) conversion to the first Stokes component of multimode (M₂ = 8) radiation from a YAG:Nd laser with lasing wavelengths of 1.319 μm, 1.338 μm, and 1.357 μm in a barium nitrate crystal. We have obtained pulses of converted radiation with energies up to 120 mJ. We have achieved conversion efficiencies greater than 40% for each of the three Raman laser wavelengths of 1.530 μm, 1.556 μm, and 1.582 μm with divergence of the beams of converted radiation close to the diffraction-limited value (M₂ < 1.5). __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 73, No. 3, pp. 330–334, May–June, 2006.

Effect of buffer gas on the generation of eye-safe 1.54 μm radiation using the stimulated Raman scattering technique in CH4

Experimental results on the generation of 1.54 μm eye-safe radiation in pure CH₄, CH₄:He and CH₄:Ar mixtures pumped by the fundamental of an Nd:YAG laser, using the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) technique, are described. A decrease in the energy conversion efficiency and degradation in the beam quality of S₁ was observed in pure CH₄ at high pump energies. This problem was overcome in CH₄:He and CH₄:Ar mixtures. Compared with the first Stokes (1.54 μm) energy conversion efficiency in pure CH₄, at a pump energy of 126 mJ, an enhancement of 50% in energy conversion efficiency was observed in the CH₄:Ar mixture (60% argon concentration) and as much as 100% in the CH₄:He mixture (60% helium concentration). The use of these buffer gas mixtures improved the spatial beam quality of the Stokes radiation considerably and also resulted in raising the pump threshold for optical breakdown of the Raman gain medium.     

High repetition rate pulsed laser of twin wavelengths from KTiOPO4 optical parametric oscillation

In this paper, some key techniques of KTiOPO_4 optical parametric oscillation (OPO) laser with repetitive frequencies and twin wavelengths output have been analysed theoretically and studied experimentally in detail. An intracavity optical parametric oscillator (IOPO) has been applied. Operating under 20Hz, laser output energy of more than 38mJ with twin wavelengths 1.57μm and 1.06μm has been achieved. Results of the experiments agree well with the theoretical discussion.

Efficient continuous-wave eye-safe region signal output from intra-cavity singly resonant optical parametric oscillator

We report an efficient continuous-wave (CW) tunable intra-cavity singly resonant optical parametric oscillator based on the multi-period periodically poled lithium niobate and using a laser diode (LD) end-pumped CW 1064 nm Nd:YVO₄ laser as the pump source. A highly efficiency CW operation is realized through a careful cavity design for mode matching and thermal stability. The signal tuning range is 1401-1500 nm obtained by varying the domain period. The maximum output power of 2.2 W at 1500 nm is obtained with a 17.1 W 808 nm LD power and the corresponding conversion efficiency is 12.9%.
