利用晶体串接实现高效宽带三倍频

从耦合波方程出发,分别在小信号、高功率(1.5 GW/cm2)条件下研究KDP晶体串接三次谐波转换。当两块混频晶体的长度选择为8 mm和6 mm,晶体分别偏离原混频匹配角0.35 mrad和-0.25 mrad时可以有0.3 nm的谐波转换带宽,同时系统的三次谐波转换效率与两块混频晶体之间的距离有密切关系,当两块晶体之间的距离使从第一块混频晶体出射的光波之间的相位差改变π时,会使第一块混频晶体产生的三次谐波大部分回流到基频和倍频光,从而使转换效率大幅度下降,最合适的距离应当使光波之间的相位差改变为2π。

厄米-高斯光束中带宽对横向强度分布均匀性的影响

使用惠更斯-菲涅耳衍射积分和傅里叶变换，推导了横向模式为厄米高斯的激光束通过硬边光阑的传输表达式。利用所得公式通过数值计算详细分析了光束的频带宽度对光束横向强度分布的影响。分析发现激光束通过硬边光阑后会出现大量的强度尖峰，引起近场的强度分布不均匀。然而，当带宽增加时，强度尖峰的数量减少，幅度减小，光束的均匀性得到改善。在远场，光束的横向强度分布没有强度尖峰出现，但宽度随带宽的增加而减小。因此带宽增加会带来近场强度匀滑化和远场光束宽度变窄的效应。另外，数值结果表明带宽对模指数为1和2的厄米-高斯光束的强度分

利用晶体串接实现宽带三次谐波转换

Mode competition in acousto-optically Q-switched planar waveguide lasers

Multi-mode rate equations have been developed to investigate mode competition in high-power acousto-optically Q-switched planar waveguide lasers. The mode competition arises from coupling effects and temporal losses in the transform between guided modes and free-space propagation. Pulse-to-pulse instability and temporal beam distortions are enlarged by mode competition when the laser works in the multi-mode regime. The influence of parasitic oscillation is also discussed. A Nd:YAG planar waveguide laser has been established with a folded hybrid/unstable resonator. A maximum average power of 83 W with a beam propagation factor M-x(2) x M-y(2) = 1.2 x 1.4 is obtained. The theoretical simulation agrees well with the experimental observation. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Effect of various alkaline-earth metal oxides on the broadband infrared luminescence from bismuth-doped silicate glasses

We report on the effect of various alkaline-earth metal oxides on the broadband infrared luminescence covering 1000-1600 nm wavelength region from bismuth-doped silicate glasses. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the infrared luminescence and the fluorescent lifetime is more than 200 nm and 400 mu s, respectively. The fluorescent intensity decreases with increasing basicity of host glasses. Besides the broadband infrared luminescence, luminescence centered at 640 nm was also observed, which should be ascribed to Bi2+ rather than to the familiar Bi3+. We suggest that the infrared luminescence should be assigned to the X-2 (2)Pi (3/2) -> X-1 (2)Pi(1/2) transition of BiO molecules dispersed in the host glasses. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

Spectroscopic properties of Er3+-doped tellurite glass for 1.55 mu m optical amplifier

Er3+-doped TeO2-BaO (Li2O, Na2O)-La2O3 tellurite glass system was prepared and their density, characteristic temperatures and optical properties were determined and investigated. For the TeO2-BaO-La2O3-Er2O3 system, composition with 10 mol% BaO presented the highest thermal stability and good infrared transmittance. Intense and broad 1.53 mu m infrared fluorescence were observed under 977 nm diode laser excitation and the most full width at half-maximum (FWHM) is similar to 60nm. According to absorption spectrum, we calculated the optical parameters by means of Judd-Ofelt and McCumber theory such as the fluorescence lifetimes which are about 2.72-3.25 ms and the maximum emission cross-sections which are similar to 1.0pm(2) at 1.531 mu m. The sigma(e) x FWHM value of composition with 10 mol% BaO for gain bandwidth is similar to 600 exceeding those in silicon and phosphate glasses. Our results indicated this kind of tellurite glasses could be used as an ideal host glass for optical amplifier. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

KMgF3及KMgF3：Eu^2＋晶体的射线辐照效应

KMgF3F Eu晶体中Eu^3＋→Eu^2＋的转换率在低浓度掺杂时接近100％，完全转换的饱和掺杂摩尔分数为0．29％．实验条件下，KMgF，晶体的X射线1h辐照损伤可在约100h后恢复；KMgF3：Eu^2＋晶体经X射线辐照后，360nm锐峰发射强度略有降低．不同剂量的γ射线辐照，KMgF3晶体热释光曲线的各个温度峰强度变化明显不同，即使小剂量辐照，造成的损伤也较难恢复，如γ射线辐照剂量为10^3Gy时，辐照损伤的恢复时间约需30d．KMgF3：Eu^2＋晶体360nm锐峰发射强度随γ射线辐照剂量增大

Nd3+掺杂的氧化镧钇透明激光陶瓷的光谱性能研究

Nd3+-doped Y2-2x La-2x O-3 (x = 0.08) transparent ceramics were fabricated by conventional fabrication process. Spectroscopic properties of the samples were investigated. The absorption band of Nd3+ : Y1.84La0.16O3 was broad covering the wavelength range 780-850 nm. When doped with 1.5at% Nd3+, the cross sections of the sample at 820 nm and laser diode pumped 808 nm were 1.81 x 10(-20) cm(2) and 1.54 x 10(-20) cm(2), respectively. The strongest emission peak of the sample was centered at 1078 mn with long fluorescent lifetime, broad emission bandwidth and high quantum efficiency. Because of the additive La2O3, the spectroscopic quality parameter (X-Nd) of matrix was' decreased from 1.6 to 0.46, thus the fluorescence branch ratio of F-4(3/2) - (4) I-11/2 transition was increased to 56.82%. These properties of Nd3' : Y1.84La0.16O3 transparent ceramic are benefitial to achieve high efficient laser output and ultrashort modelocked pulse.
