    摘要: A device and corresponding method for cooling electronics is disclosed. The device is an all-solid-state optical cryocooler and can include an optically pumped semiconductor laser (OPSL); a cavity configured to receive and control absorption of the optically pumped semiconductor laser, the cavity having a high reflection (HR) surface and an anti-reflection (AR) surface; and a doped crystal housed within the cavity, the doped crystal configured to cool in response to input of the optically pumped semiconductor laser. The method can include supplying an intracavity optically pumped semiconductor lasers to a doped crystal within a cavity; and configuring the cavity to include a high reflection (HR) surface and an anti-reflection (AR) surface, the HR surface and AR surface formed on or in connection with the doped crystal to increase pump light absorption at the crystal within the cavity.

    摘要: The present invention includes a laser amplifier and a method of making the same. The laser amplifier of the present invention includes a gain medium layer having a first index of refraction, and a coupling layer optically coupled to the gain medium. In the various embodiments described herein, the coupling layer can have a second index of refraction less than the first index of refraction. The laser amplifier described herein can also include an evanescent layer disposed between the gain medium and the coupling layer. The evanescent layer can have a third index of refraction less than the second index of refraction. The laser amplifier provides high power, efficient laser resonance through frustrated total internal reflection and total internal reflection while simultaneously providing for the minimization of waste heat in the gain medium layer.

    摘要: Various embodiments provide devices and methods of an optical coupled-cavity photo-acoustic spectroscopy (CC-PAS). The exemplary CC-PAS can include three mirrors configured in parallel to couple a Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity with a sample cavity. The sample cavity can be a resonant cavity for containing a sample. The FP cavity can be used as a tunable input coupler for the sample cavity to improve spectroscopic sensitivities when measuring an absorber in the sample.

    摘要: Interferometric auto-correlation is obtained using third-order (.chi..sup.(3)) nonlinearities. The nonlinear signal is separated from the linear interferometric response in order to extract information about the amplitude and the chirp of the ultrashort pulses. In one technique, cross-polarized beams are provided to eliminate the linear response. In another technique, electronic filtering is used. Electronic filtering provides substantial reduction of cost, size and complexity over conventional second harmonic generator crystals.
