Description

A kind of side pumping disk gain module structure of nonbonding or sintering
Technical field
The present invention relates to high power solid state laser field, the side pumping disk of especially a kind of nonbonding or sintering Gain module structure.
Background technology
With lasting propulsion of the laser diode pump solid state laser device to high-tech application field, to the power of laser Horizontal and beam quality is proposed higher and higher requirement.Sheet gain media is easily achieved one-dimensional efficiently cooling, is advantageous to The thermal distoftion inside laser is controlled, is the effective way for developing high power and high light beam quality laser using sheet laser medium Footpath.
Sheet laser medium mainly has two kinds of configurations of lath and disk, and the output facula of lath sheet gain media is not pair Claim structure, optical parameter both horizontally and vertically is different, thereby increases the complexity of slab laser development and application.Disk Laser medium will be obviously not present disadvantages mentioned above, and the cooling structure of disk laser medium is all identical, i.e., is carried out by end face high Effect cooling, and pump mode is then divided into two kinds of end-pumping and side pumping.
End-pumping mode is easily achieved, and is the main flow pumping configuration of existing Disk laser, due to disk laser medium Rear end face has been used for microchannel cooling, only stays front end face while amplifies for pumping and laser generation, thus, pumping light path and sharp Light generation amplification light path is in the same space region, and both optical components are easily interfered, and densification difficult to realize is set Meter, two light path systems are caused to take huge space, optical path adjusting is complicated, and especially superpower laser needs multi-disc laser to be situated between Matter concatenates, the problem of interfering just more prominent, the densification of laser, reliability and maintainability all suffers from choosing greatly very much War.
Side pumping mode is that pumping light path and laser generation amplification light path are separated into different area of space, i.e. laser two Pole pipe is changed to the side pumping from disk laser medium, avoids the deficiency of end-pumping mode, but the side of disk laser medium is very It is thin, and side is the arc surface handled through feather plucking, is difficult to realize the efficient pumping of diode laser matrix.Existing method be The side bonding of disk laser medium or sintering tapered transmission line, the pump guide for being launched diode laser matrix by tapered transmission line Enter into disk laser medium, this is simple and compact for structure, but difficult in the technology of very thin arc surface bonding or sintering tapered transmission line Degree is very big, and cost is also very high.
The content of the invention
The purpose of the present invention, aiming at the deficiency present in prior art, and provide a kind of side of nonbonding or sintering Pumping disk gain module structure, the program can greatly improve the coupling efficiency of circular laser medium side pumping, eliminate circle The pumping of shape laser medium conventional side needs to be bonded or sinter the technical barrier of tapered transmission line.Meanwhile waveguide also have well it is even Change effect, improve pumping homogeneity, reduce optical distortion during circular laser medium heat loading.
This programme is achieved by the following technical measures:
The side pumping disk gain module structure of a kind of nonbonding or sintering, includes cooler, disk laser medium, conical wave Guide structure and diode laser matrix;Disk laser medium and tapered transmission line structure setting are on cooler;Tapered transmission line structure Around the lateral surface for being connected to disk laser medium;Diode laser matrix is provided with the lateral surface of tapered transmission line structure;Cone The connection end of shape waveguiding structure and diode laser matrix is incidence end;Connection of the tapered transmission line structure with disk laser medium even Hold as exit end;The incidence end bore of tapered transmission line structure is more than the bore of exit end.
As the preferred of this programme:Tapered transmission line structure is made up of upper cover plate, window lens and cooler;Window lens The outward flange of cooler is arranged on, and the height of window lens is higher than the thickness of disk laser medium;Upper cover plate is covered in disk On laser medium outer rim to the region on the top of window lens;The lower surface of upper cover plate and the inner side of window lens and cooler Upper surface formed cavity in be injected with matching fluid;Diode laser matrix is arranged on the lateral surface of window lens.
As the preferred of this programme:Matching fluid is identical with the refractive index of disk laser medium.
As the preferred of this programme:The outer rim of upper cover plate is shaped as regular polygon;The outer rim shape and upper cover plate of cooler Outer rim shape match;A window lens are both provided with each side of cooler;The outside of each window lens One group of diode laser matrix is both provided with face.
As the preferred of this programme:The diameter of circular laser medium and the ratio of thickness are not less than 7:1.
As the preferred of this programme:The lower surface of upper cover plate and the upper surface of cooler are high anti-, reflectivity to pump light ≥98%。
As the preferred of this programme:Diode laser matrix emergent light enters after window lens and matching fluid successively In disk laser medium.
The beneficial effect of this programme can learn according to the narration to such scheme, due in this scenario using matching fluid as The waveguide material of circular laser medium profile pump, the side of matching fluid and circular laser medium be brought into close contact to be formed it is seamless Solid-liquid interface, matching fluid is identical with the refractive index of circular laser medium more in addition, and reflection and scattering are not present between solid-liquid interface Loss, can so greatly improve the coupling efficiency of circular laser medium side pumping, eliminate circular laser medium conventional side Pumping needs to be bonded or sinter the technical barrier of tapered transmission line;The upper surface structure of the lower surface of upper cover plate, matching fluid and cooler Tapered waveguiding structure, bigbore tapered transmission line incidence end can effectively improve pump power.Meanwhile waveguide also have well it is even Change effect, improve pumping homogeneity, reduce optical distortion during circular laser medium heat loading.
As can be seen here, the present invention compared with prior art, has substantive distinguishing features and progress, its beneficial effect implemented It is obvious.
