摘要: A solid laser produces a laser beam of a 1 &mgr;m wavelength band with an Nd-doped solid laser medium. An oscillation mode is brought to a single longitudinal mode with a Fabry-Pérot etalon located within a resonator. An etalon thickness, an etalon reflectivity, an etalon inclination, and a resonator longitudinal mode interval satisfy the relationships, 1.2%≦RN≦15% and 0.5°≦&thgr;≦2.0°, in which RN represents an effective reflectivity of the etalon with respect to wavelengths &lgr;=&lgr;0±&Dgr;&lgr;c deviating by a resonator longitudinal mode interval &Dgr;&lgr;c from a resonance wavelength &lgr;0 of the etalon, and &thgr; represents an inclination of an etalon optical axis with respect to a resonator optical axis.

摘要: In an optical wavelength converting apparatus, a fundamental wave impinges upon a crystal of a nonlinear optical material, the type II of phase matching between the fundamental wave and its second harmonic is effected, and the second harmonic of the fundamental wave is thereby radiated out of the optical wavelength converting apparatus. Two crystals constituted of the same material are employed as the crystal. The two crystals have equal lengths and are located in orientations such that corresponding optic axes may be shifted 90.degree. from each other. The optical wavelength converting apparatus yields the second harmonic having the maximum possible output power and yet can be kept small in size and low in cost.

摘要: In an optical wavelength converting apparatus, a laser beam serving as a fundamental wave and having been obtained by pumping a solid laser medium is caused to impinge upon a nonlinear optical crystal, and the type II of phase matching between the fundamental wave and its second harmonic is effected. The second harmonic of the fundamental wave is thereby radiated out of the optical wavelength converting apparatus. A solid laser medium, which produces a linearly polarized fundamental wave in two longitudinal modes, is employed as the solid laser medium. A device for adjusting a difference in phase of the fundamental wave due to the nonlinear optical crystal and a device for adjusting the temperatures of the nonlinear optical crystal and a resonator, such that the temperatures may be kept at predetermined values, are provided in order to work such that two directions of polarization of the fundamental wave may intersect approximately perpendicularly to each other and may respectively incline approximately 45.degree. with respect to an optic axis of the nonlinear optical crystal. The second harmonic having stable output power and free of any noise is thus obtained.

摘要: A laser-diode-pumped solid state laser in which a solid state laser crystal is pumped by a light beam produced by a laser diode and which is not lower than 10 W in the internal power of the resonator includes a temperature control circuit which keeps the inside temperature of a resonator at a predetermined temperature and, a wavelength selector which is disposed in the resonator and selects one of a plurality of oscillation modes in the resonator, thereby making the laser oscillate in a single mode. The wavelength selector has characteristics such that the increase in temperature of the wavelength selector due to absorption of a laser beam is smaller than a value such that when the temperature of the wavelength selector changes by the value or more, the oscillation mode selected by the wavelength selector changes.

摘要: An optical wavelength converting apparatus comprises a fundamental wave source, which produces a laser beam serving as a fundamental wave, and an optical wavelength converting device, which is provided with an optical waveguide constituted of a nonlinear optical material. The optical wavelength converting device converts a wavelength of the laser beam impinging upon and guided through the optical waveguide. The optical waveguide is provided with a plurality of periodic domain-inverted structures, which effect phase matching between the laser beam and wavelength-converted waves. Reflection of the fundamental wave or wavelength-converted waves from end faces of the optical wavelength converting device is thereby minimized, and a plurality of wavelength-converted waves having high intensities are obtained in a state combined with one another.
