The maximum output power reaches 8.3 W when the incident pump power is 15.8 W, with 52.5% optical-to- optical conversion efficiency and 62.6% slope efficiency. A stable laser output at 2118.1 nm is achieved, with a linewidth less than 0.4 nm (full width at half maximum). The beam quality factor is M2- 1.25, measured by the traveling knife-edge method.展开更多

It consisted of a pump laser and a feedback circuit including an intensity modulator, a Fabry-Perot (FP) etalon, two optical fiber delay lines, two photodetectors, and an amplifier. By inserting the Fabry-Perot etalon, the proposed dual-loop OEO realized a single mode oscillation ranging from 0 Hz to 20 GHz. The strong oscillation mode was present at 15 GHz, and the side modes suppression ratio (SMSR) exceeded 140dB. More over the length of the two fiber loops were just 5 meters and 36 meters.展开更多

The OPO resonator ring circuit provides for the radiation energy output value of up to 50 mJ. Radiation bandwidth narrowing of up to 0.7 cm–1 by introducing of the Fabry-Perot etalon into the OPO resonator has been obtained.展开更多
