A stable actively Q-switched laser is obtained at dual wavelengths of 1 075.2 nm and 1 078.2 nm. The maximum average output power of 720 mW is obtained at the repetition rate of 15 kHz under the pump power of 8.7 W. The minimum pulse width of 58 ns is obtained at the repetition rate of 5 kHz under the pump power of 8.7 W, corresponding to the peak power of 1.9 kW and the pulse energy of 112 μJ.展开更多
文摘利用不同波长的蓝光激光二极管,采用不同方式抽运掺镨氟化钇锂(Pr:YLF)晶体,利用I类相位匹配的偏硼酸钡(BBO)为倍频晶体,腔内倍频产生中心波长为261.37 nm连续紫外激光器。采用V型折叠腔结构,利用两支不同波长的蓝光激光二极管(444 nm和469 nm)单独泵浦晶体,经过优化,将两支蓝光激光二极管合光后作为抽运源,增大泵浦功率的同时,保留了Pr:YLF晶体对其高的偏振吸收效率。Pr:YLF晶体的长度为5 mm,掺杂浓度为0.5%,在抽运光功率为2800 m W时获得了最大输出功率245 m W的连续紫外261.37 nm激光器,光光转换效率约为8.75%。
