Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optics, in particular to a frequency doubling device of a laser.
Background
Frequency conversion is an effective technique for expanding the application range of high power lasers, and it utilizes the nonlinear optical effect of optical media under strong radiation field to generate new frequencies. Frequency doubling is the most widely used technique in nonlinear optics, and generally we want to obtain higher conversion efficiency from fundamental light to frequency doubled light.
Generally, there are two main approaches to increase the conversion efficiency of the frequency doubling process: (1) the peak power density of the fundamental light is increased. Under the condition of given laser pulse energy and pulse width, the method for improving the peak power density is to reduce the size of a light spot, and the method has the defects that when the light spot is reduced to a certain degree, the peak power density of the laser exceeds the damage threshold of a coating film on the end face of a laser crystal, so that a device is damaged; (2) the frequency doubling crystal length is increased. The conversion efficiency decreases as the peak power density of the fundamental frequency light in the frequency doubling crystal is gradually reduced. Therefore, when the frequency doubling crystal length is increased to a certain length, the frequency doubling efficiency of the crystal length is not obviously improved.

Referring to fig. 1, a frequency doubling device of a laser provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a first frequency doubling crystal 1, a first beam splitter 2a, a second beam splitter 2b, a third beam splitter 2c, a beam reduction mirror 3, a second frequency doubling crystal 4, a beam expander mirror 5, a first half-wave plate 6a, a second half-wave plate 6b, and a polarization beam splitter 7. The incident light X1 enters the first beam splitter 2a through the first frequency doubling crystal 1, and is split into the first transmitted light X2 and the first reflected light X3 by the first beam splitter 2 a. The first transmitted light X2 sequentially passes through the beam reduction mirror group 3, the second frequency doubling crystal 4, the beam expander group 5 and the first half-wave plate 6a, then enters the third beam splitter 2c, is split into a second transmitted light X6 and a second reflected light X4 by the third beam splitter 2c, and the second reflected light X4 enters the polarization beam splitter 7 and is reflected by the polarization beam splitter 7 to form a third reflected light.

In the application process of the frequency doubling device of the laser, the residual energy of the primary frequency light after the primary frequency doubling conversion is subjected to beam shrinking and then to frequency doubling conversion again, and the frequency doubling light obtained by the secondary conversion is output after beam expanding and the frequency doubling light obtained by the primary conversion so as to improve the frequency doubling efficiency. In addition, the traditional external cavity frequency doubling scheme is influenced by the damage threshold of an optical device, and the frequency doubling efficiency can only reach 50 percent; the frequency doubling device of the laser can ensure that under the condition of not damaging an optical device, when the reduction multiple of the beam reducing lens group is 1.4 times and the expansion multiple of the beam expanding lens group is 1.4 times, wherein when the first frequency doubling conversion efficiency reaches 50 percent, the peak power density of the fundamental frequency light in the second frequency doubling process reaches the same level as that in the first frequency doubling process.

The beam reducing lens group 3 includes a first convex lens 3a and a first concave lens 3 b.

The main optical axis of the first convex lens 3a and the main optical axis of the first concave lens 3b are respectively located on the optical center extension line of the first transmitted light X2. Because the convex lens and the concave lens both have a refraction effect on light, the characteristic that light can be transmitted along a straight line can be changed according to the refractive index according to the position of the light incident on the convex lens or the concave lens, and in this case, only when the main optical axis of the first convex lens 3a and the main optical axis of the first concave lens 3b are respectively positioned on the optical center extension line of the first transmission light X2, the first transmission light X2 can still be transmitted along a straight line after sequentially passing through the first convex lens 3a and the first concave lens 3 b.
The beam expander group 5 includes a second concave lens 5a and a second convex lens 5 b. The first transmitted light X2 passes through the second concave lens 5a and then the second convex lens 5 b; the main optical axes of the second concave lens 5a and the second convex lens 5b are respectively located on the optical center extension line of the first transmitted light X2. Because the convex lens and the concave lens both have a refraction effect on light, the characteristic that light can be transmitted along a straight line can be changed according to the refractive index according to the position of the light incident on the convex lens or the concave lens, and in this case, only when the main optical axis of the second concave lens 5a and the main optical axis of the second convex lens 5b are respectively positioned on the optical center extension line of the first transmission light X2, the first transmission light X2 can still be transmitted along a straight line after sequentially passing through the second concave lens 5a and the second convex lens 5 b.
Wherein, the first frequency doubling crystal 1 and/or the second frequency doubling crystal 4 are/is made of crystals formed by one substance of potassium titanyl phosphate or lithium triborate or the mixture of the two substances. Wherein,
potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) crystal is a nonlinear optical crystal that has excellent nonlinear optical properties and has gained wide attention and application. The KTP crystal is a positive optical double crystal, the light transmission wave band of the KTP crystal is 350 nm-4.5 um, and the phase matching (generally adopting II-type phase matching) of frequency multiplication, sum frequency and optical parametric oscillation of 1.064um neodymium ion laser and other wave band laser can be realized. The nonlinear coefficients d31, d32 and d33 are 1.4, 2.65 and 10.7pm/V respectively, and the d33 is more than 20 times of that of the KDP crystal d 36. The KTP crystal has a higher light damage resistance threshold value, and can be used for medium-power laser frequency doubling and the like. The KTP crystal has good mechanical property and physicochemical property, is insoluble in water and organic solvent, is not deliquescent, has a melting point of about 1150 ℃, is partially decomposed during melting, and has great temperature and angle latitude. The KTP crystal as a frequency conversion material is widely applied to various fields such as scientific research, technology and the like, and particularly as an optimal crystal for medium and small power frequency doubling. Frequency doublers and optical parametric amplifiers made of the crystal are applied to all-solid-state tunable laser sources.
Lithium triborate (LiB 3O5, abbreviated as LBO) is an excellent high-power ultraviolet frequency doubling crystal with wide light transmission band, high damage threshold and large acceptance angle. Its main properties include: transmission band: 0.165-3.2 μm, nonlinear coefficient: d31=1.05Pm/V, laser damage threshold: 25GW/cm2, frequency doubling conversion efficiency: 40-60% (1064 nm → 532 nm), application range: solid-state laser systems, in particular for high-power Nd: YAG frequency doubling, frequency tripling, optical parametric oscillation and amplification.
Wherein, the first frequency doubling crystal 1 and the second frequency doubling crystal 4 are both plated with antireflection films of fundamental frequency light and frequency doubling light. In this case, the light intensity loss is reduced by the introduction of the antireflection film during the light passes through the first frequency doubling crystal 1 and the second frequency doubling crystal 4, and therefore, the light passing through the first frequency doubling crystal 1 and the second frequency doubling crystal 4 can be transmitted with fidelity as much as possible.
The first frequency doubling crystal 1 and the second frequency doubling crystal 4 are made of the same material.
The sectional area of the second frequency doubling crystal 4 is larger than or equal to half of the sectional area of the first frequency doubling crystal 1. In this case, the cross-sectional area of the crystal can be such that the beam can pass through it completely, and the larger the cross-sectional area of the frequency doubling crystal, the higher the price. Since the area of the light spot at the second frequency doubling crystal 4 is only half of that at the first frequency doubling crystal 1, the light beam can completely pass through only if the sectional area of the second frequency doubling crystal 4 is larger than or equal to half of that of the first frequency doubling crystal 1. This is done to reduce costs.
Wherein, if the reduction multiple of the beam reducing lens group 3 is m and the expansion multiple of the beam expanding lens group 5 is n, then m = n. Which can ensure that the spot distribution of the light beam X7 is uniform. If m is not equal to n, the spot diameters of the light beam X4 and the light beam X5 are different, and the original spot energy distribution state is changed after the light beams are combined, so that the spot distribution of the light beam X7 is not uniform.
Wherein, the optical elements forming the beam reducing lens group 3 and the optical elements forming the beam expanding lens group 5 are both coated with antireflection films of fundamental frequency light and frequency doubling light.
The wavelengths of the first half-wave plate 6a and the second half-wave plate 6b are the wavelengths of the frequency doubling light. In this case, the two half-wave plates here have the function of changing the polarization directions of the two beams of frequency-doubled light passing through the half-wave plates, so as to realize the combined beam output of the two beams of frequency-doubled light at the polarization splitting prism 7. The light beam X5 passes through the half-wave plate 6b and becomes horizontally polarized light, and the light beam X4 passes through the half-wave plate 6a and becomes vertically polarized light. The half-wave plate has a wavelength range in use, for example, laser light having a wavelength of 1064nm is not suitable for the half-wave plate of 532 nm.
And antireflection films of fundamental frequency light and frequency doubling light are plated on the first half-wave plate 6a and the second half-wave plate 6 b. Thereby reducing the loss of light intensity after the light passes through the first half-wave plate 6a and the second half-wave plate 6 b.
Wherein, the polarization beam splitter prism is plated with a frequency doubling light anti-reflection film. Thereby reducing the loss of light intensity after the light passes through the polarization splitting prism.
The reflection surfaces of the first spectroscope 2a, the second spectroscope 2b and the third spectroscope 2c are respectively plated with a frequency doubling light high-reflection film with the reflectivity of more than 99.5%, and the two surfaces of the first spectroscope 2a, the second spectroscope 2b and the third spectroscope 2c are respectively plated with a fundamental frequency light antireflection film with the transmissivity of more than 99.5%. While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, additional variations and modifications in those embodiments may occur to those skilled in the art once they learn of the basic inventive concepts. Therefore, it is intended that the appended claims be interpreted as including preferred embodiments and all such alterations and modifications as fall within the scope of the invention.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include such modifications and variations.
