Yb：铅锌镧碲酸盐玻璃的热学、光谱和激光性质

研究了摩尔组分为70TeO2-(20-x)ZnO-xPbO-5La2O3-2.5K2O-2．5Na2O(x=0，5，10，15，20)的新型多元铅锌镧碲酸盐激光玻璃，外掺Yb2O3为玻璃摩尔组分的1％，测试了试样的物理性质及吸收光谱、荧光光谱和荧光寿命，计算了Yb^3+的吸收截面、受激发射截面、荧光有效线宽等光谱参数，结果表明：该系列玻璃都具有良好的热学稳定性((Tx-Tg)>195℃，高于TZN玻璃(118℃))；当X=15时，样品具有较好的光谱性质：高的受激发射截面(1．25pm^2)、长的荧光寿命(

Laser-induced damage of Ta2O5/S1O2 narrow-band interference filters under different 1064 nm Nd : YAG laser modes

The laser-induced damage (LID) behavior of narrow-band interference filters was investigated with a Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm under single-pulse mode and free-running mode. The absorption measurement of such coatings was performed with surface thermal lensing (STL) technique. The damage morphologies under the two different laser modes were also studied in detail. It was found that all the filters exhibited a pass-band-center-dependent absorption and laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) behavior, but the damage morphologies were diverse. The explanation was given with the analysis of the electric field distribution and the operational behavior of the irradiation laser. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
