Abstract

The invention provides a multi-laser-medium integration gain system. Pumping coupling modules in the gain system output light, the pump light is led into a cooling liquid box through reflecting mirrors, and the pump light is fully absorbed after passing through multiple laser media in the cooling liquid box. The absorption coefficient of the laser medium in the middle of the cooling liquid box is highest, and absorption coefficients of the remaining laser media gradually become low from the middle to the left side and the right side. Therefore, the formed gradually-changed absorption distribution enables all the laser media to evenly absorb the pump light. The pump light is incident perpendicular to the end faces of the laser media. The pumping effect can not be affected by changes of distances among the laser media. Due to the flexible changes of the distances among the laser media, great convenience can be brought for the design of a layer flow field. The advantage of integration of a multi-laser-medium gain module is kept, and in addition, the design difficulty of the gain module is greatly reduced, so that properties are greatly improved. The multi-laser-medium integration gain system is simple in structure, easy to machine, assemble and adjust and low in cost.

Description
