Continuous-wave laser oscillations in LiF:F-2 crystal optically pumped by a laser diode at 970 nm were demonstrated for what is believed to be the first time. The slope efficiency of 14% and conversion efficiency of 5.5% were achieved for 80 micros pump pulse duration and 5 Hz pulse repetition rate. An efficiency twice as low was measured at a 6.25 kHz pulse repetition rate (50% off-duty factor) and in cw mode of laser operation.
据信首次实现了由970纳米激光二极管光泵浦的LiF:F - 2晶体中的连续波激光振荡。对于80微秒的泵浦脉冲持续时间和5赫兹的脉冲重复率,实现了14%的斜率效率和5.5%的转换效率。在6.25千赫兹的脉冲重复率(50%占空比)和连续波激光运行模式下,测量到的效率低了一半。
