Abstract

The invention discloses a high-power side-pumping 1525nm (human-eye safe waveband) automatic self-raman laser, and a core part of the filter is a side pump head. The side pump head comprises an LD array and a laser crystal rod, wherein the LD array is used for the pumping of the laser crystal rod, and the laser crystal rod is used for laser transmission and stimulated raman scattering. The LD array and the laser crystal rod operate in a resonant cavity formed by laser, a raman total-reflection mirror, and a raman light output mirror, thereby achieving the fundamental frequency light vibration, and achieving the conversion from fundamental frequency light to raman light through an acousto-optic Q-switching under the action of the laser crystal rod, wherein the raman light output mirror outputs 1525nm laser. The laser solves problems that an end-face pumping solid laser is low in output power and is lower in practicality, and also solve a problem that a common side-pumping solid laser is complex in structure.
