The Cl^- concentration was varied from 30 to 150 g/L and cyclic potentiodynamic polarization was conducted to investigate the influence of the Cl^- concentration on the corrosion potential(E_(corr)), passive breakdown potential(E_(pit)), and repassivation potential(E_(rep)). The results of the polarization curves revealed that 13Cr stainless steel is susceptible to pitting under high Cl^- concentration. The passive breakdown potential and repassivation potential decreased with the increase of Cl-concentration. The semiconducting behavior of the passive film was investigated by Mott-Schottky analysis and the point defect model(PDM). It was observed that the iron cation vacancies and oxygen vacancies were continuously generated by autocatalytic reactions and the higher Cl^- concentration resulted in higher vacancies in the passive film. Once the excess vacancies condensed at the metal/film interface, the passive film became locally detached from the metal, which led to the breakdown of the passive film.展开更多

The influence of different transmittances of the output coupler on laser output performance is analyzed. With T = 50%, the max/mum PQS average output power of 2.3 W is ob- tained, corresponding to the slope efficiency and the optical-optical conversion efficiency are 35.1% and 19.8%, respectively. Also, the minimum pulse width of 100ns is achieved at the maximum pulse repetition frequency of 34.2kHz. When the maximum cw output power is 2.7W, the beam quality factor of the horizontal direc- tion Mx2 = 1.04 and the vertical direction M2 = 1.10 are obtained. In addition, the central wavelength of the laser output remains to be 2057.5nm with the output coupler transmittances of 50% and 60% in both cw and PQS operations. The results show that the Cr2＋：ZnS can be used as an SA in a Ho：LuVO4 laser around 2-μm wavelength.展开更多

It is the first time to report a PQS Ho：SSO laser. For the ew mode, a maximum cw output power of 3.0 W is obtMned, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 31.4%. For the PQS mode, a Cr2＋ ：ZnSe is used as the saturable absorber, with transmission of 88.4% at 2112nm. A maximum pulse energy of 1.29mJ is obtained, corresponding to the pulse repetition frequency of 2.42kHz. In this study, we change the distance between Cr2＋ ：ZnSe and the output mirror to research the pulse characteristic of the PQ, S Ho：SSO laser. The minimum pulse width of 73.5ns is obtained, corresponding to the pulse energy of O. 9 mJ and the pulse repetition frequency of 2.65 kHz.展开更多

We compare the experimental results at the three different distances L of the polycrystalline Cr2＋ ：ZnS saturable absorber to the output coupler. The pulse width almost remains constant for different L, when the incident pump power is changed in the range of 7.9 27.1 W. The shortest pulse duration of 33.3 ns for L = 105 mm and the highest average output power of 6.8 W for L = 5 mm are obtMned at the incident pump power of 27.1 W. The output wavelength of the passively Q-switched laser shifts to 2045.2nm from 2064.7nm in the cw operation. The beam quality factor of M2 is 1.2.展开更多

In this paper we presents theoretical calculations using Advanced Dynamics Professional LASCAD software and experimental studies for a high power pigtailed fiber diode laser module of 8 W operating at 808 nm with a specially designed high efficiency cooling system, end pumped high-efficiency Nd:YVO4 laser of 3 × 3 × 10 mm rod and overall cavity length of 44 mm. To the best of our knowledge a self Q-switching effects was generated in Nd:YVO4 laser by changing the cavity dimensions and the position of the intracavity KTP crystal at certain regime of operation for the first time, in which the cavity length is reduced to be 30 mm and the distance between Nd:YVO4 rod and KTP crystal is only 1mm. Self Q-switched laser pulse at 532 nm with high peak power of 96 W, pulse width of 88 ns at FWHM and repetition rate of 400 kHz was achieved. Experimental studies of a passive Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser using Cr:YAG crystal with three different transmissions of 30%, 40% and 70% were investigated. Passive Q-switched laser pulse at 1064 nm and narrow line width of less than 1.5 nm with highest peak power of nearly 18 kW, short pulse width of less than 4 ns at FWHM and higher repetition rate of 45 kHz using Cr:YAG with transmission of 30% was achieved for the first time.展开更多
