All-solid-state narrow-linewidth 455-nm blue laser based on Ti:sapphire crystal

A compact, all-solid-state, narrow-linewidth, pulsed 455-nm blue laser based on Ti：sapphire crystal is developed. Pumped by a 10-Hz, frequency-doubled all-solid-state Nd：YAG laser and injection-seeded by an external cavity laser diode, the narrow-linewidth 910-nm laser with pulse width of 20 ns is obtained from a Ti：sapphire laser. 3.43-mJ blue laser can be obtained from the laser system by frequency-doubling with BBO crystal. This research is very useful to determine the roadmap of developing the practical, high power blue laser. This kind of laser will have potential application for underwater communication.     

强激光场下原子超快动力学过程中的能量交换

利用三维经典系综模型,研究了整个系综两电子(Ar原子为例)从激光场吸收的能量对激光参数(波长、激光强度和椭偏率)的依赖关系.结果显示,当激光强度固定,波长增加时,整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量整体呈上升趋势,但不同强度下趋势略有差异.在较低强度时整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量对波长的依赖关系呈现持续平稳增加的趋势,在较高强度时呈现先缓慢减小再快速增大的趋势.对强度的依赖关系在不同波长时呈现两个有趣的交叉点.对椭偏率的依赖关系在较低强度时呈现先逐渐减小再缓慢增大的趋势;在中等强度时呈现一个“阶梯型”即先缓慢增大再逐渐减小最后缓慢增大;在更高强度时呈现先逐渐增大再逐渐减小的趋势.为了解释整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量对激光参数的依赖关系,把整个系综的动力学过程分为双电离、单电离、受挫单电离和受挫双电离4种通道.然后分析各个通道的特征及其如何主导整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量的变化趋势.分析结果表明,整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量对波长、激光强度和椭偏率的依赖均是由于某种通道主导整个系综两电子从激光场吸收的能量的结果.

Effects of laser intenstiy on the emission direction of fast electrons in laser-solid interactions

The dependence of emission direction of fast electrons on the laser intensity has been investigated. The experimental results show that, at nonrelativistic laser intensities, the emission of fast electrons is mainly in the polarization plane. With the increase of the laser intensity, fast electrons emit towards the laser propagation direction from laser polarization direction. At relativistic laser intensities, fast electrons move away from the laser polarization plane, closely to the reflection direction of the incident laser beam.

Narrow bandwidth operation of high-power broad-area diode laser using cascaded phase-conjugate injection locking

A broad-area laser is injection-locked by another broad-area laser that is also injection-locked by a single-mode diode laser. Two double-phase conjugate mirrors of photorefractive BaTaO₃ are used to couple the master laser beams to the first slave laser, and the first slave laser output to the second slave laser. One of the double-phase conjugate mirrors is built up with the beams from two broad-area lasers. Two slave lasers are oscillating in single longitudinal mode at 808.5 nm and the spectral width is the same as that of the master laser. Final single-mode output power from the second slave broad-area laser is 840 mW, which is limited by the power of the injection beam. This work verifies the possibility of the multi-stage cascaded injection locking of high-power diode lasers with phase-conjugate injection.

All-fiber mode-locked fiber laser

An environmentally stable mode-locked fiber laser based on nonlinear polarization rotation is experimentally demonstrated. The laser is based on a novel laser configuration that has negligible low-power steady-state reflectivity from one side and, consequently, no CW gain. The laser is self starting and the configuration is implementable as an all-fiber laser with standard polarization-maintaining fiber-pigtailed components. A pulse duration of 5.6 ps is obtained at a repetition rate of 5.96 MHz and at an average power of 8 mW. As an application of the proposed laser configuration, 213 mW of supercontinuum (600-1750 nm) was demonstrated from a fiber laser system with no sections of free-space optics.     

Experimental investigation on laser flattening of sheet metal

The purpose of this research is to establish the technique of laser flattening and to consider the fundamental mechanism. The thermal stress produced by heating with a laser beam is used to make a flat sheet from a sheet metal of protruded distortion. Three kinds of protrusions are chosen as the typical protruded distortion; point protrusion, line protrusion and face protrusion. For point protrusion, laser irradiation along the circular path is effective when the height of protrusion is large, and the laser irradiation along the radial path is effective when it is small. For line protrusion, laser beam is irradiated along the short straight path whose direction is normal to the centerline of the protrusion. For face protrusion, the height decreases from 1-0.1 mm by the laser irradiation along the circular path. The residual stress at the convex surface of a point protrusion on the sheet metal changes from a large compressive stress to a small tensile stress by the laser irradiation.

激光驱动晶体发射低阶谐波强度随激光波长的变化规律

通过数值求解激光驱动下电子在一维周期势场中运动的薛定谔方程,研究了晶体在激光场中发射的低阶谐波强度随激光波长的变化规律,结果表明,晶体发射低阶谐波强度随激光波长的变化规律与晶体发射高次谐波第一平台区域的变化规律不同.已有的研究表明晶体发射高次谐波第一平台区域的强度会随激光波长的增加而衰减,而我们发现晶体发射低阶谐波的强度会随激光波长的增加而增加.通过对晶体发射低阶谐波的时频分析、晶体价带能量变化与激光光子能量的关系,解释了晶体发射低阶谐波强度随激光波长增加而增加的原因.     

Laser systems specialized for laser spectroscopy at storage rings

Laser spectroscopy at storage rings often suffers from a limited resolution due to Doppler-broadened resonances. Broadening is caused by the velocity spread of the ions stored in the beam. In the following, the present status of our work on laser systems specialized on the specific needs of laser spectroscopy at storage rings is reported. Two pulsed laser systems were developed. One is a dye laser whose spectral bandwidth can be switched by inserting different Littrow-prisms into the resonator. An increase in bandwidth up to a factor of 45 was achieved. This laser was used for fast qualitative scans and high resolution measurements. The other laser system is a Nd : YAG laser pumped optical parametric oscillator. It is a tunable laser system covering the spectral range from 410 to 4000 nm. Furthermore, a continuous wave laser with a frequency shifted feedback cavity is described. It shows broadband emission with an adjustable bandwidth of up to 4.5 GHz. This laser can be advantageous for laser cooling of ion beams. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Polarization-dependent femtosecond laser filamentation in air

We report on a systematic study of the laser polarization effect on a femtosecond laser filamentation in air.By changing the laser's ellipticity from linear polarization to circular polarization, the onset position of laser filament formation becomes farther from the focusing optics, the filament length is shorter, and less laser energy is deposited. The laser polarization effect on air filaments is supported by a simulation and analysis of the polarization-dependent critical power and ionization rates in air.     

������������Ƶ�����ܼ�Ramanɢ�������Ƿֲ�����

介绍了在神光Ⅱ装置上开展的长脉冲2ns三倍频激光与黑腔靶相互作用的实验。报道了采用PIN探测器阵列测量大角度受激Raman散射（SRS）角分布和采用激光卡计对背向SRS光能量积分测量的实验结果。相同实验条件下激光辐照缝靶产生的SRS光能量要强于激光与全腔靶作用产生的SRS光，小腔靶的SRS光能量要强于标准腔靶。对比长脉冲2ns及短脉冲1ns激光打靶实验结果可以看出：由于激光功率密度的下降，长脉冲激光打靶时SRS散射光能量要弱于短脉冲激光打靶。长脉冲2ns激光与标准腔靶相互作用时，等离子体堵腔比较严重。     

PHOTON ACCELERATION DRIVEN BY AN INTENSE LASER PULSE

Interaction of a laser field with a plasma wave is studied by metric optics. Analysis shows that the frequency upshifting of the laser pulse results from the plasma density gradient. A laser beam can be thought of as a packet of photons moving in a plasma and thus the laser frequency upshifting is equivalent to photon acceleration. Examination of the three-dimensional motion equations shows that a laser beam diffraction occurs in the presence of a radial variation of the plasma density. It is argued that the focusing mechanism originating from the plasma wave can curb laser diffraction so that photons may be trapped in the plasma wave and accelerated continuously.
