摘要: Provided is a solid-state laser device in which a linear resonator including an output mirror and a rear mirror, a laser rod, and optical members are provided on a common base and are contained in a housing having the base as a portion. A holding part is provided to hold an excitation light source that extends parallel to the laser rod on a side of the laser rod opposite to the base. The optical members including a Q-switch are disposed between the laser rod and the rear mirror. An upper end position of the output mirror is at a position lower than a lower end position of the excitation light source held by the holding part, with the base as a reference. The holding part holds the excitation light source so as to be capable of being inserted and extracted with respect to the output mirror side in a longitudinal direction of the excitation light source.

摘要: A method of performing spatial separation of different wavelengths in a single laser cavity includes generating, from a pump radiation source, pump radiations in spatially separate channels and focusing the generated pump radiations in the spatially separate channels towards an active gain medium having amplification spectra. The method also includes emitting from the active gain medium, amplified radiations of the spatially separate channels, each channel of the spatially separate channels representing a corresponding wavelength and focusing the emitted amplified radiations of the spatially separated channels towards an aperture. The method further includes suppressing, at the aperture, an off-axis mode of the amplified radiations of the spatially separate channels, diffracting the amplified radiations of the spatially separate channels received through the aperture to provide diffracted radiations and returning a portion of the diffracted radiations back to the aperture, and collimating the diffracted radiations of the spatially separate channel.

摘要: An optical power beam transmission system, with a directional light transmitter and receiver. The transmitter contains an amplifying laser medium, and this together with a retroreflector in the receiver, forms a laser resonator. When lasing sets in, the receiver can extract optical power through an output coupler and convert it to electrical power. The gain medium may be a disc having a thickness substantially smaller than its lateral dimensions. The laser resonator is operated as a stable resonator to ensure safe operation. This is achieved by use of an adaptive optical element, for reducing the diameter of the energy beam impinging on the gain medium, thereby increasing the overlap between the energy beam and the gain medium. As the transmitter-receiver distance is changed, such as by movement of the receiver, the adaptive optical element focal length changes to ensure that the cavity remains within its stability zone.

摘要: A method of generating fs laser pulses (1), includes steps of creating a circulating light field in a resonator cavity (10) with multiple resonator mirrors (11-18) by pumping at least one gain medium (21, 22) included in the resonator cavity (10), and passing the circulating light field through a first Kerr medium (31) included in the resonator cavity (10), so that the fs laser pulses (1) are formed by self-amplitude modulation of the circulating light field, wherein the resonator cavity (10) includes at least one supplementary Kerr medium (32-36) enhancing the self-amplitude modulation of the circulating light field, and each of the first Kerr medium (31) and the at least one supplementary Kerr medium (32-36) provide different non-linear Kerr lens contributions to the self-amplitude modulation of the circulating light field. Laser pulse source apparatus (100) for generating fs laser pulses (1) is also described.

摘要: The present invention describes a self mode locking laser and a method for self mode locking a laser. The laser (1) comprises a resonator terminated by first (3) and second (4) mirrors and folded by a third mirror (5). The third mirror comprises a single distributed Bragg reflector (17) upon which is mounted a multilayer semiconductor gain medium (18) and which includes at least one quantum well layer and an optical Kerr lensing layer (22). Self mode locking may be achieved by configuring the laser resonator such that the lensing effect of the Kerr lensing layer acts to reduce an astigmatism deliberately introduced to the cavity mode. The self mode locking of the laser may be further enhanced by selecting the length of the resonator such that a round trip time of a cavity mode is matched with an upper-state lifetime of one or more semiconductor carriers located within the gain medium.

摘要: A method for improving the output beam quality of a free electron laser (FEL) by reducing the amount of emission at wavelengths longer than the electron pulse length and reducing the amount of edge radiation. A mirror constructed of thermally conductive material and having an aperture therein is placed at an oblique angle with respect to the beam downstream of the bending magnet but before any sensitive use of the FEL beam. The aperture in the mirror is sized to deflect emission longer than the wavelength of the FEL output while having a minor impact on the FEL output beam. A properly sized aperture will enable the FEL radiation, which is coherent and generally at a much shorter wavelength than the bending radiations, to pass through the aperture mirror. The much higher divergence bending radiations will subsequently strike the aperture mirror and be reflected safely out of the way.

摘要: Techniques for increasing the spatial and spectral brightness of laser arrays such as laser diode arrays are provided. Passive cavity designs are described that produce wavefront phase locking across the face of large arrays. These designs enable both spatial and spectral selectivity in order to coherently link the individual emitters that make up the diode array. Arrays of customized micro-optics correct aberrations of the individual apertures of the arrays while highly spectrally selective partial reflectors overcome the deleterious effects of inhomogeneities in local thermal environments of the individual emitters that are being phase locked together. Using these two technologies, along with intracavity diffractive beam coupling, solves two long standing problems that have prevented effective and robust phase locking of laser diode arrays.
