A folded-path transversely excited atmospheric-pressure CO2 laser utilizing shower or brush discharges is described. The output pulse has an initial peak 0.4 μs wide followed by a tail2-3 mu s long. A peak power of 0.2 MW with 4.4 percent efficiency is obtained. By rotating one of the mirrors of the resonator the tail is eliminated, yielding a pulse 0.2 μs wide of the same peak power. 相似文献

Signal conversion of optical analog signals to light pulse density signals was accomplished using a p-n-p-n LED and a simple passive RCL circuit. The light pulse density was 0.69 Mbit/s. The variable ratio per 1 μW of incident light power was 0.8 kbit/s. The peak wavelength, half width, detecting wavelength range, and output light power of the p-n-p-n LED were 900, 60, 650-900 nm, and 1.2 mW/50 mA, respectively. 相似文献

We have obtained continuously tunable coherent radiation in the1-12 mu m region via sequential Raman scattering of pulsed-dye-laser radiation in hydrogen. A multiple-pass-cell was used to enhance the Raman gain and produce an overall quantum conversion efficiency of at least 45 percent in the wavelength range from 0.9 to 5μm. At 5 μm, an energy output of 1 mj in a 7 ns pulse at a 10 Hz repetition rate has been obtained. Inherent four-wave mixing initiates the sequential Stokes conversion to the infrared and produces single transverse mode (TEM00 ) radiation in a 0.2 cm-1bandwidth. We have developed a nonlinear model of the process that includes the effects of diffraction, four-wave mixing, and temporal pulse shape and gives numerical outputs in agreement with experiment. 相似文献

Ultrashort-cavity semiconductor film lasers made with InP, InGaAsP, and InGaAs have generated picosecond pulses over the wavelength range from 0.77 μm to 1.65 μm after optical pumping by an intense, 0.5 ps pulse at 0.625 μm. Each material composition operates over an energy range from just below the bandgap to more than 20 percent above the bandgap. For a given composition, pulse duration increases as wavelength increases; for different compositions, pulse durations increase as the bandgap energy decreases. Pulse durations range from 1.4 ps (for InP) to about 30 ps. Peak power is in the range of 1- 10 W. These unique properties of ultrashort-cavity film lasers are due to the combination of bandfilling caused by the intense photoexcitation and the ultrashort cavity, which provides widely spaced resonances to ensure single mode operation and also produces a short photon lifetime necessary for optical gain switching. The film lasers have a uniform, nearly Gaussian, spatial mode. 相似文献

The energy per pulse as a function of wavelength was measured for several near-IR dyes (and dye mixtures) spanning the wavelength region from 650 to 950 nm using a 900 kW nitrogen laser (Molectron UV24) and a tunable dye laser-amplifier combination (Molectron DL14). The peak energy per pulse for each dye ranges from a low of 90 μJ at 855 nm (DTTC) to a high of 350 μJ at 702 nm [Oxazine 720P:Rhodamine 610P (1:1)]. Several new near-IR dye mixtures are discussed that make it possible to tune from 660 to 940 nm without having the energy per pulse drop below 50 μJ. Pulse widths (FWHM) for HITC and IR 125 were measured at various wavelengths and were observed to vary by as much as 40 percent over the tuning ranges of the dyes. 相似文献

A modified three-level laser kinetics model for a pulsed high-power optically pumped gas terahertz laser is introduced and used to model the lasing kinetics process of a gas terahertz laser system. We, for the first time to our knowledge, investigated the time evolution dynamics process of the pump intensity, population distribution among the energy levels, pump and THz signal gain coefficient, and the THz laser intensity within the pulsed D2O gas THz laser. High-power THz pulse with peak power of about 7.4 kW and pulse width of 145 ns at wavelength of 385 μm were obtained in the simulation, using an incident pump pulse with peak power of 2.2 MW and pulse width of 110 ns. THz pulse delay of 40 ns and pulse broadening of 35 ns were quantitatively analyzed. In addition, the experimental results for the pulse profile, pulse width, pulse broadening, pulse energy, and peak power are in agreement with the theoretical simulation results. 相似文献

Performance and limitations for doubling mode-locked, 1 μm pulse trains in KTP (potassium titanyl phosphate) was experimentally examined. The micropulse length was on the order of 200 ps and the macropulse length was on the order of 100 μs. Conversion efficiencies of 55 percent was achieved with a generated green energy of 190 mJ in 120 μs. An intensity regime for long-term damage-free operation was identified. 相似文献

Analysis and operation of a Q-switched Tm/sup 3+/-doped silica fiber laser in the wavelength region of 2 /spl mu/m is described when pumped with a Nd:YAG laser operating at 1.319 /spl mu/m. A large core of 17-/spl mu/m diameter was used to increase the laser gain volume, allowing high pump-power absorption and an output of high pulse energy and peak power. An acoustooptic modulator was used as Q-switching element and operated at repetition rates up to 30 kHz. A maximum peak output power of greater than 4 kW and a pulse duration at full-width at half-maximum of 150 ns has been obtained. This is the first report of high peak-power operation of the thulium-doped silica fiber laser. 相似文献

Maximum CW output power was investigated in GaInAsP 1.3μm V-grooved inner stripe on P-substrate (VIPS) lasers considering both cavity length and facet reflectivity. Long-cavity lasers show a strong dependence of maximum output power on front reflectivity. A CW light output over 200 mW was obtained at room temperature using a 700 μm long cavity laser with 5 and 98 percent reflectivity of the front and rear facets, respectively. The fundamental transverse mode operation was confirmed up to 170 mW. A coupled power over 110 mW into a single-mode fiber was achieved with a coupling efficiency of 58 percent. We have verified the high reliability under high power levels, as high as 75 percent of the maximum CW output powers at room temperature. 相似文献

RF discharge waveguide laser technology has been extended from the 10.6 μm CO2 laser to include 2.7 μm HF, 3.8 μm DF, and several rare gas mid-infrared lasers. The maximum achieved electrical efficiencies of 5.3 and 4.0 percent were demonstrated in pulsed HF and DF systems, respectively. These, as well as several low efficiency rare gas lasers were demonstrated in a 20 cm gain length device. The output power and spectral distribution were determined as a function of the gas composition, pressure, velocity, and the RF power, pulse length, and repetition rate. 相似文献

A high-contrast, three port optical AND gate based on the photoconductive effect in Ga0.47In0.53As:Fe and operating in the λ=1.3-5 μm wavelength range is demonstrated. A 250:1 optical power contrast ratio (or 48 dB in electrical power after detection) is obtained in an optical-to-optical time division demultiplexing of a 100 MHz pulse train by a 6.25 MHz clock, both at λ=1.3 μm, with the demultiplexed output pulses at λ=1.5 μm 相似文献

Experimental and analytical studies of a 60 Hz, 0.45 W, 630 nm Raman laser source with a 12 ns pulse duration have demonstrated an overall electrical to optical efficiency of 0.12 percent. This is the first demonstration of a short pulse, high repetition rate red laser at such a high average output power without the need for a visible pump laser. Additional significance arises from the fact that simple extensions of the present work will produce many wavelengths in the visible and near infrared (IR) spectral region. A 1064 nm Nd:YAG pump laser operating at 60 Hz was used to pump a methane gas Raman laser operating at 1544 nm. This wavelength was mixed with the remaining 1064 nm laser output in noncritically phase matched lithium niobate to produce 630 nm radiation. The optical energy conversion efficiencies for the three steps were 1.4, 30, and 20 percent, respectively, for output energies of 86 mJ at 1064 nm, 15 mJ at 1544 nm, and 7.5 mJ at 630 nm. rms pulse amplitude variation measured 6 percent or less. A 10.7 million pulse life test was conducted, and the average output energy did not vary more than ±10 percent from its initial value. 相似文献

Double-drift silicon IMPATT diodes were fabricated for pulse source application at 35, 94, and 140 GHz. The diodes were operated with 300 ns pulsewidth and a 1.5 percent duty cycle. All sources exhibited a change in output frequency of >1 percent throughout the duration of the pulsewidth with <1 dB peak power variation. Peak pulse output power levels of 10, 2, and 0.7 W were achieved in each of the three frequency bands, respectively. 相似文献

The pulse-pumped operating characteristics of liquid-nitrogen-cooled Ni:MgF2 , Co:MgF2 , and Ni:CaY2 Mg2 Ge3 O12 (CAMGAR) solid-state lasers have been studied. The internal quantum efficiency of the Ni:MgF2 laser was found to be limited to approximately 40 percent, presumably because of excited-state absorption. The Co:MgF2 laser operated with near-unity quantum efficiency, and generated 150 mJ of diffraction-limited output at repetition rates up to 50 Hz. A continuous tuning range from 1.6 to 2.3 μm was observed along withQ -switched peak output powers of 80 kW. Laser operation from the garnet-structured crystal Ni:CAMGAR was obtained at a wavelength of 1.46 μm. 相似文献

Utilization of inductive storage in production of intense charged particle beams, laser beams, and hot dense plasmas of interest in thermonuclear fusion studies and in other research areas is very attractive because of its inherent compactness associated with energy storage in the form of magnetic fields. A major problem in utilizing inductive energy sources with sufficient output power for such beams and plasmas is the development of an opening switch. In some instances, repetitive pulse output is required, so that switches must open repeatedly at a frequency determined by the needs of the experiment. If only a small number of pulses is needed, then use of one switch per pulse in the train becomes a practical method for generating pulse trains with peak power determined by the performance of individual switches. Formation of pulse trains with peak pulse power in the range of 109to 1010W was studied. This study included the investigation of single-switch elements to determine methods for extending the operating power to higher levels. 相似文献
