Abstract

It is shown that a birefringent Fabry-Perot etalon, which has a simple configuration similar to Lyot's filter except for mirror coatings on the end-faces of birefringent crystal, is useful for tuning of dye lasers because of the high finesse realized by two stages of commonly used Fabry-Perot etalons. Experimental tuning characteristics of PbMoO(4) and LiNbO(3) birefringent Fabry-Perot etalons in a pulsed dye laser, pumped by the second harmonic of a repetitively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, are in agreement with the theory.

摘要

结果表明，一种双折射法布里-珀罗标准具，其结构简单，除了在双折射晶体的端面有镜面涂层外，与利奥滤光片相似，由于采用两级常用的法布里-珀罗标准具实现了高精细度，因此对染料激光器的调谐很有用。用重复调Q的Nd:YAG激光器的二次谐波泵浦的脉冲染料激光器中，PbMoO(4)和LiNbO(3)双折射法布里-珀罗标准具的实验调谐特性与理论相符。
