摘要:
The invention relates to an optical arrangement having - a division element which divides an input beam consisting of a sequence of temporally equidistant light pulses into two spatially separate partial beams, - at least one optical element through which at least one of the partial beams propagates, and - at least one combination element which spatially superimposes the partial beams in an output beam. The problem addressed by the invention is that of showing a method for increasing the pulse energy of light pulses which is improved in comparison with the prior art. The invention solves this problem by virtue of the fact that the combination element superimposes a number of the temporally successive light pulses in a single light pulse in the output beam. The invention also relates to a method for increasing the pulse energy of light pulses.

The invention relates to a device for generating electromagnetic radiation, comprising a pump light source (1), which emits a substantially monochromatic excitation radiation (5) at a first wavelength, and an optical waveguide (2), which generates frequency-converted radiation (6, 7) at a second and a third wavelength from the excitation radiation (5) of the pump light source (1) by means of degenerate four-wave mixing. The problem of the invention is producing a device which ensures an improved pulse shape and conversion efficiency. According to the invention a filter element (3) is provided, which attenuates the radiation (6, 7) at the second or third wavelength.

The invention relates to a Q-switched laser comprising a pump light source (1), an optical resonator, in which a laser medium (6) is situated and a passive Q-switch (5). The aim of the invention is to provide an improved Q-switched laser which has a simple, compact construction with a repetition rate that has at the same time the smallest possible degree of time jitter. To achieve this, according to the invention, part of the light that is decoupled from the optical resonator is fed to an optical delay line (9) by means of a beam splitter (8) and is re-coupled to the optical resonator once it has passed through said optical delay line (9). The optical resonator has a decoupling mirror (4) and the coupled resonator can contain a dichroic beam splitter (7) and a polarisation beam splitter (8).

The invention relates to an optical resonator (1), comprising at least one optical element (2), which reflects or transmits laser radiation, preferably pulsed laser radiation. The aim of the invention is to create a practical possibility of coupling pulsed laser radiation out of or into a resonator (1). The invention achieves said aim in that the optical element (2) can be switched, wherein in a first switching position the laser radiation is reflected or transmitted in such a way that that the laser radiation circulates in the resonator (1), and wherein in a second switching position the laser radiation is coupled out of the resonator (1) or the laser radiation emitted by an external radiation source is coupled into the resonator (1).

The invention relates to an apparatus for generating azimuthally or radially polarized radiation by means of an optical waveguide (1), wherein the optical waveguide (1) has a structure for conducting azimuthally or radially polarized modes (5, 7). The invention proposes that the azimuthally or radially polarized modes (5, 7) in the optical waveguide (1) have different effective refractive indices and, within the optical waveguide (1), a narrow-band grating (2), is arranged, in particular a fibre Bragg grating, which is designed such that the spectral distance between two azimuthally or radially polarized resonant modes (5, 7) is equal to or greater than the associated spectra bandwidth.
