摘要:
Methods are disclosed for minimizing laser induced damage to nonlinear crystals, such as KTP crystals, involving various means for electrically grounding the crystals in order to diffuse electrical discharges within the crystals caused by the incident laser beam. In certain embodiments, electrically conductive material is deposited onto or into surfaces of the nonlinear crystals and the electrically conductive surfaces are connected to an electrical ground. To minimize electrical discharges on crystal surfaces that are not covered by the grounded electrically conductive material, a vacuum may be created around the nonlinear crystal.

A first electrode, a first insulating film, a second electrode, a second insulating film, and a pixel electrode are formed on a one surface side of a first substrate of an electro-optical device. The second electrode is electrically connected [to the first electrode] via a first contact hole that penetrates the first insulating film. The second electrode and the second insulating film configure a continuous flat surface, which is the surface on the opposite side to the first substrate, and the pixel electrode is electrically connected to the second electrode. Of the second insulating film, since an inside section positioned inside a concave portion caused by the first contact hole is connected to an outside section provided on the outside of the concave portion, peeling of the inside section is unlikely to occur

A system includes a nonlinear crystal positioned such that a focus of a laser beam is outside the nonlinear crystal in at least one plane perpendicular to a beam propagation direction of the laser beam. The nonlinear crystal is disposed in a crystal mount assembly. A laser beam may be directed at the nonlinear crystal for wavelength conversion. The system may be used as a deep-UV wavelength converter.
摘要:
An optical crystal can be mounted to a mounting block configured to receive the crystal. A base portion on the mounting block utilizes two walls forming a corner and a single biasing spring clip to secure the crystal. The spring clip applies forces in two different directions substantially orthogonal to the two walls. The spring clip is based off a symmetrical geometry which applies nearly the same force application in both directions. The spring also features bend regions that contact the crystal in such a way as to reduce the presence of point loads or stress risers. The length of contact along the crystal is maximized, allowing for proper force distribution and a sufficient surface are contact for static holding capabilities.

A device for moving a nonlinear crystal or a saturable absorber in two dimensions includes a first and a second piezo unit, each having a corresponding carrier, piezo driver, and carriage moveable by the piezo driver at incremental steps along a linear path with respect to the carrier between a first and a second end location, in which the linear paths of the first piezo unit and the second piezo unit are orthogonal. The nonlinear crystal/saturable absorber is fastenable on the carriage of the first piezo unit and the carrier of the first piezo unit is fastened on the carriage of the second piezo unit. The device further includes stops that define the carriage end locations, an end location detection configured to detect the carriages at their respective end locations, and a counting unit configured to count the steps covered during the moving of the carriage.
