摘要:
An electron-optical device comprising a cathode ray tube with an envelope comprising an electron gun for producing an electron beam, whose inner surface carries a multi-element layer electrode such as a helical structure formed from a high-ohmic resistance material, which structure constitutes a focusing lens. A deflection system is used for moving the focused electron beam across a laser crystal arranged in the tube. Due to the laser action of the crystal, a scanning laser is realized. The laser light leaves a window in the tube envelope. The window extends at an angle between 20° and 60° to the longitudinal axis of the tube which is parallel to the electron beam incident on the laser crystal. Used in, inter alia, projection tubes and electron beam-pumped lasers (for example, scanning lasers).

The present invention describes a method and apparatus for mounting a semiconductor disc laser (SDL). In particular there is described a cooling apparatus assembly (12) for mounting the semiconductor disc laser (1) the cooling apparatus assembly comprising a crystalline heat spreader (8) made of diamond, sapphire or SiC and optically contacted to the SDL (1). The apparatus further comprises a heatsink (13) made of copper and a recess (16) located on a first surface (15) of the heatsink. A pliable filler material (17) which may be In or an In alloy is provided within the recess (16) such that when a sealing plate (19) is fastened to the heatsink the SDL (1) is hermetically sealed within the recess. Hermetically sealing the SDL within the recess is found to significantly increase the lifetime of the device comprising the SDL. The heat sink (13) may be water cooled with pipes (14) delivering the water. In case the sealing plate (19) is made from for example Invar, it has an aperture (20).

A vertical external cavity surface emitting laser (VECSEL) structure includes a heterostructure and first and second reflectors. The heterostructure comprises an active region having one or more quantum well structures configured to emit radiation at a wavelength, λ lase , in response to pumping by an electron beam. One or more layers of the heterostructure may be doped. The active region is disposed between the first reflector and the second reflector and is spaced apart from the first reflector by an external cavity. An electron beam source is configured to generate the electron beam directed toward the active region. At least one electrical contact is electrically coupled to the heterostructure and is configured to provide a current path between the heterostructure and ground.

An imaging system (10) for imaging an emitting gas (12) includes an imager (16) and a laser source (20). The imager (16) captures an image (18) of light in the mid-infrared (MIR) range. The laser source (20) includes a semiconductor laser (334) that directly emits an output beam (26) that is in the MIR range. The output beam (26) may be adapted to backscatter near and/or be absorbed by the emitting gas (12). Thus, when an emitting gas (12) is present, the gas (12) may absorb and attenuate the backscattered light. As a result thereof, a shadow or contrast (18A) corresponding to the emitting gas (12) may be visible in the image (18) that is captured by the imager (16).
