We report on the operation of a tunable all-solid-state (holosteric) laser system consisting of a tunable Ti:sapphire laser pumped by a frequency-doubled diode-laser-pumped Nd:YLF laser. With a 1-W pump diode, the Nd:YLF laser has been frequency-modulation mode locked and Q switched at 1.047 microm. This produces a pulse envelope of 75-nsec duration with 45 microJ of energy in 21-psec pulses at a 360-MHz repetition rate. This output was frequency doubled in 90 degrees phase-matched MgO:LiNbO(3) with a 47% energy conversion efficiency. The Ti:sapphire cavity was a three-mirror astigmatically compensated arrangement.The threshold absorbed pump energy was 3.9 microJ, with an output energy of 1.3 microJ at 10.8-microJ absorbed pump power.The tuning range was 746-838 nm and was limited by the mirror reflectivities.
我们报道了一种可调谐全固态(全正色散)激光系统的运行情况,该系统由一台由倍频二极管泵浦的Nd:YLF激光器泵浦的可调谐钛宝石激光器组成。使用1瓦的泵浦二极管,Nd:YLF激光器已在1.047微米处实现调频锁模和调Q。这产生了一个持续时间为75纳秒的脉冲包络,在360兆赫的重复频率下,21皮秒的脉冲中能量为45微焦。该输出在90度相位匹配的MgO:LiNbO(3)中进行倍频,能量转换效率为47%。钛宝石腔是一种三镜非对称补偿结构。阈值吸收泵浦能量为3.9微焦,在吸收泵浦功率为10.8微焦时输出能量为1.3微焦。调谐范围为746 - 838纳米,受镜面反射率限制。
