A kind of white light laser
Technical field
The present invention relates to laser technique, in particular, relate to a kind of white light laser.
Background technology
White light laser, owing to having spatial coherence and wider transmitted bandwidth (400 to 700 nanometer), is thus widely used in three-dimensional light tweezer, true color 3D hologram, manipulation microscopic objects, fluorescence microscope, replacement white light LEDs as illumination etc.
Different from general mixed light, by multiple one-wavelength laser mixing (red, green, blue), be difficult to form white light laser, this is because the laser of different frequency can influence each other; Usually the method realizing white light laser is at present by nonlinear optical technique, and this can make the tranmitting frequency of laser expand to the scope of white light.But this method needs higher pump power (such as using high-power femto-second laser as pump light), and the efficiency of conversion is very low, makes the white light laser that can only obtain pulsed in this way be difficult to realize continuous print white light laser simultaneously.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to, need high-power driving, conversion efficiency low for existing white light laser and the defect of continuous white light laser cannot be obtained, a kind of novel white light laser is provided, to overcome above-mentioned problem.
Solution of the above problems of the present invention is: construct a kind of white light laser, comprises LED pump light source, white light gain media and laserresonator; White light gain media is arranged in laserresonator, and LED pump light source is arranged on the surrounding of white light gain media and focuses on white light gain media.
White light laser of the present invention, white light gain media is the carbon nano-structured macromolecule polymer material of Uniform Doped.
White light laser of the present invention, carbon nano-structured is the carbon quantum dot of diameter 1.5 to 3.5 nanometer.
White light laser of the present invention, also comprise concave mirror, concave mirror is right against LED pump light source and white light gain media, after the light of LED pump light source focuses on white light gain media, be transmitted to concave mirror, the light of transmission focuses on white light gain media by concave mirror.
White light laser of the present invention also comprises the cylindrical lens be arranged between LED pump light source and white light gain media, and the emergent light of LED pump light source focuses on white light gain media by cylindrical lens.
White light laser of the present invention, laserresonator comprises and being arranged on outside white light gain media, and is parallel to completely reflecting mirror and the half-reflecting mirror of white light gain media end flat, and white light gain media is located between two pieces of parallel reflective faces.
White light laser of the present invention, in two pieces of plane mirrors, one piece is completely reflecting mirror, and another block is half-reflecting mirror.
White light laser of the present invention, LED pump light source is LED array.
Implement white light laser of the present invention, white light laser that is continuous or pulse can be produced, simultaneously owing to using industrial mass-produced standard LED (off-the-shelfLED), considerably reduce the cost of white light laser, and can high conversion efficiency be realized.This laser structure is simple, and stability is high, is applicable to industrial large-scale popularization and uses.

Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention will be described, wherein:
Fig. 1 is the structural representation of white light laser embodiment of the present invention;
Fig. 2 is the bright dipping light intensity of white light laser under different pump intensity;
Fig. 3 is the bright dipping spectral characteristic of white light laser.
In Fig. 1: 100, LED pump light source; 200, white light gain media; 300, cylindrical lens; 400, completely reflecting mirror; 500, concave mirror; 600, half-reflecting mirror.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is carried out.
Be illustrated in figure 1 the embodiment of white light laser of the present invention, in the present embodiment, LED pump light source 100 produces pump light, pump light is through the refraction of cylindrical lens 300, focus on white light gain media 200, white light gain media 200 is subject to exciting of pump light, produces stimulated emission.In order to improve the energy of stimulated emission, in the position for LED pump light source 100 and white light gain media 200, concave mirror 500 is set, after the light of LED pump light source 100 focuses on white light gain media 200, be transmitted to concave mirror 500, the light of transmission focuses on white light gain media 200 by concave mirror 500 again.Order is excited to excite enhancing.
In this enforcement, white light gain media 200 is for being uniformly distributed the high molecular polymer of carbon quantum dot, and the diameter of carbon quantum dot is 1.5 to 3.5 nanometers.Be subject to exciting of LED pump light source 100, produce the be excited exciting light of wavelength in 380 to 700 nanometers.Repeatedly amplify in white light gain media 200 to make to be excited exciting light, the high molecular polymer being uniformly distributed carbon quantum dot is made cylinder, a completely reflecting mirror 400 and a half-reflecting mirror 600 are set in cylinder two ends, the two is parallel to the plane at high molecular polymer cylinder two ends, form F-P cavity (FabryPerot), stimulated luminescence is also shaken amplification in the gain medium by two plane mirror roundtrip, produces white laser when laser arrives some strength from the outgoing of half-reflecting mirror (600) one end.
In the present embodiment, the LED light source employing standard is as pumping source, and compared to the white light laser of prior art, power consumption is lower, effectively reduces the volume of laser and avoids the use complexity needing debugging laserresonator to bring.Because the high molecular polymer being uniformly distributed carbon quantum dot can produce, to be excited excitation wavelength be the exciting light of being excited of 380 to 700 nanometers, and therefore this embodiment can produce continuously or the white light laser of pulse outgoing.
Fig. 2 is the outgoing characteristic of white light laser under the pump light of different capacity of invention.When pump power does not reach the pumping threshold of being excited to excite (the K point in Fig. 2), the light intensity of outgoing substantially by not affected by pump light, as a point in Fig. 2; After more than K point, white light laser starts to occur emergent light, as the b point in Fig. 2; After this along with the enhancing of pump light, the white light laser of outgoing also synchronously strengthens, as the c point in Fig. 2.Fig. 3 gives a, b, c emergent light spectral characteristic of tri-some correspondences.When white light laser normally works time, the light of its outgoing is in 380 to 650 nanometer continuous distribution, and the light of therefore outgoing becomes white light.
These are only the specific embodiment of the invention, scope of the present invention can not be limited with this, the equalization change that those skilled in the art in the art do according to this creation, and the change that those skilled in that art know, all still should belong to the scope that the present invention is contained.
