Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of laser engineering and discloses an optical pumping device for weakly adsorbing a gain medium. The device mainly comprises an unsteady optical resonant cavity, the gain medium and an output mirror, wherein the unsteady optical resonant cavity is formed by a primary mirror and a secondary mirror; and the output mirror is plated with a bicolor film layer. The output mirror is plated with the bicolor film layer, so that the output mirror has high reflectivity for a maser wavelength and has high permeability for a pump light wavelength; pump light is injected in the direction opposite to the unsteady optical resonant cavity and by utilizing a convergence wave effect of the unsteady optical resonant cavity, the gain medium is injected into an optical axis region after the pump light is repeatedly subjected to convergence reinforcement, so that pumping intensity is improved; and the pump light which is not adsorbed by the gain medium is diffused again in the optical axis region at the center of the unsteady optical resonant cavity so as to implement multipass and overlapped adsorption, thereby further improving the pumping intensity. The optical pumping device for weakly adsorbing the gain medium, which is disclosed by the invention, has a simple structure and allows expansion of the number of the pump light; and the pumping intensity and the adsorption distance can be effectively improved.
