高稳定激光二极管抽运Nd∶YLF再生放大器

设计并实现了一种放大纳秒激光脉冲的高稳定的激光二极管(LD)抽运Nd∶YLF再生放大器。为了获得高稳定的输出,再生放大器工作在饱和状态。此时,再生放大器输出稳定性最好,而且注入激光脉冲能量波动引起的输出激光脉冲波动被抑制。由于增益饱和效应,再生放大器输出脉冲出现时域波形失真,附加后缀脉冲能够减弱时域波形失真。放大器工作波长1053nm,工作频率1Hz。输入240pJ的3ns方波激光脉冲,输出激光脉冲能量4.2mJ,总增益大于107,不稳定度小于1%(均方根),方波扭曲1.33。为3ns方波激光脉冲引入其本身幅度0.75倍的后缀脉冲,输出激光脉冲方波扭曲由1.33降至1.17。

Highly stable, diode-pumped Nd : YLF regenerative amplifier

We present the design and experimental results for a diode pumped Nd:YLF regenerative amplifier applied to amplify a nanosecond laser pulse. Numerical simulation shows that the maximum output energy and the best stability can be obtained when the regenerative amplifier operates in a saturated mode for all pulse duration and temporal profiles. Using extra post-pulse is a good method to decrease the square-pulse distortion caused by gain saturation effect. The amplifier shows output energy of 4.2mJ with a total energy gain of more than 107 and output energy stability of better than 1% rms. When extra post-pulse is added, square-pulse distortion is decreased from 1.33 to 1.17 for the amplifier that is seeded with an optical pulse of 3 ns.

Diode-end-pumped passively CW mode-locked Nd : YLF laser by the LT-In0.25Ga0.75As absorber

We have demonstrated a self-staring passively continuous-wave mode-locked diode end-pumped Nd:YLF laser with a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror of single-quantum-well (In0.25Ga0.75As) grown by metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition technique at low temperature. The saturable absorber was used as nonlinear absorber and output coupler simultaneously. Stable pulse duration of 3 ps has been achieved at the repetition rate of 98 MHz. The average output power was 530 mW at 1053 nm under the incident pump power of 10 W, corresponding to the peak power of 1.8 kW and pulse energy of 5.4 nJ.

周期相位调制光束的放大

为研究周期相位调制光束的放大特性，在分析激光放大介质跃迁谱线线型对损耗、受激辐射截面及饱和能量密度等参量影响的基础上，改进了原先的脉冲放大模型。以Nd：YLF放大器为例，实验中获得的时间波形调制周期约为300ps，与计算结果330ps吻合较好；同时依据该模型计算分析了影响放大输出时间波形的主要因素，入射光场中心频率与跃迁谱线中心频率的匹配能有效降低相位调制-振幅调制（PM—AM）效应，为抑制该效应提供了依据。
