Abstract: A steerable laser transmitter and active situational awareness sensor that achieves SWaP-C, steering rate and spectral diversity improvements by scanning a beam with a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) Micro-Minor Array (MMA). One or more sections of non-linear material (NLM) positioned in the optical path (e.g. as annular sections around a conic mirror or as reflective optical coatings on the MMA) are used to convert the wavelength of the beam to a different wavelength while preserving the steering of the beam. The MEMS MMA may include piston actuation of the mirrors to shape the spot-beam.

Abstract: A resonant cavity and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The resonant cavity includes a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface, each of the first and second reflective surfaces providing a phase shift of a reflected electric field component of light waves oscillating along a first principal axis that differs by about π relative to a phase shift of a reflected electric field component of light waves oscillating along a second principal axis that is normal to the first principal axis. At least one of the first and second reflective surfaces having diattenuation. The first principal axis of the first reflective surface is set rotated relative to the first principal axis of the second reflective surface by about an angle α0 between an unbroken parity-time symmetric region and a broken parity-time symmetric region. As a result, spatial hole burning and dual mode operation can be eliminated.

Abstract: A laser emitting apparatus includes a detection and control system, a pump source, a first reflecting mirror group, a gain medium, and a beam deflection system on an optical path. The gain medium is pumped by the pump source to emit fluorescence, and is stimulated by resonance, between the first reflecting mirror group and a laser receiving apparatus, of the fluorescence to emit laser light. The beam deflection system emits the fluorescence or the laser light emitted by the gain medium, and emits the fluorescence or the laser light reflected by the laser receiving apparatus into the gain medium. The detection and control system adjusts the beam deflection system to preset emission angles, detects light intensities of the fluorescence or the laser light, and a light spot position of the laser light on the detection and control system, and adjusts the emission angle based on the light spot position.

Abstract: A laser amplifier device including an amplification element which includes a solid-state gain medium including a first main face and a second main face separated from each other by a distance which is smaller than the lateral dimensions. A heat spreader is thermally connected to, and substantially covering, the first main face. The heat spreader is optically transparent to a pump light and is in thermal contact with a heat sink. A first reflector substantially covers and faces the first main face and a second reflector substantially covers and faces the second main face; the reflectors being configured to reflect the pump light. The heat spreader and the first reflector are arranged such that the pump light passes through the heat spreader and through the first reflector and is reflected multiple times across the amplification element, between the first and second reflectors.

Abstract: A spatially and spectrally distributed long-laser system. Spatially separated phase-conjugate mirrors (PCMs) define a long-laser resonator cavity. The PCMs define, respectively, a power transmitting unit (master), and a power receiving unit (slave), as well as providing a secure two-way communications link between the units. The long-laser is mode-locked, minimizing third-party interception and detection. A wavefront-reversal device, using a MEMS spatial phase modulator, integrated with a retroreflector array, provides a true phase-conjugate (time-reversed) replica of the beam at each end of the system, providing auto-alignment, diffraction-limited performance, compensation for static and dynamic phase and polarization distortions, minimizing the FOV and scattering. The retroreflecting array initiates the oscillation mode. The SPM adaptive optical system bootstraps the retro-array by forming a simultaneous closed-loop system. The PCM emulates a deformable mirror with an integrated cat's eye retro-array, on a pixel-by-pixel basis, equivalent to a true wave-front reversal device at each end of the system.

Abstract: A method for generating femtosecond vortex beams with high spatial intensity contrast, where a noncollinearly pumped HG beam femtosecond laser generates femtosecond HG beam and a cylindrical lens mode converter converts the femtosecond HG beam to femtosecond LG vortex beam. The HG beam femtosecond laser comprises a pump source, a gain medium, a saturable absorption mirror as mode-locker, and an output coupler with a noncollinear angle between the laser beam and the pump beam in the gain medium, which enables the laser to generate pure, order-tunable femtosecond HG beams. Femtosecond vortex beams obtained after the cylindrical lens converter have high-intensity-contrast, and are topological charge-tunable.
