Specific implementation mode
To keep the purpose, technical scheme and advantage of invention clearer, below in conjunction with the attached drawing in invention, in invention Technical solution be explicitly described, it is clear that described embodiment is invention a part of the embodiment, rather than whole realities Apply example.It is obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts based on the embodiment in invention Every other embodiment belongs to the range of invention protection.
In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise indicated, the orientation or positional relationship of the instructions such as term "upper", "lower" is base It in orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, is merely for convenience of description of the present invention and simplification of the description, rather than indicates or imply Signified laser or element must have a particular orientation, with specific azimuth configuration and operation, therefore should not be understood as pair The limitation of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 1, the present invention provides a kind of disresonance subnanosecond pulse laser, which includes moving back pressure to adjust Q Module, pumping source 1 and the pump coupling unit 2 set gradually along the transmitting optical path direction of pumping source 1, dichroic mirror 3, laser increase Beneficial medium 4, Q-switch 5 and speculum 6;Pump coupling unit 2 is for focusing the pump light that pumping source 1 emits through dichroic mirror 3 Onto laser gain medium 4, dichroic mirror 3 is obliquely installed, and one end plating of laser gain medium 4 towards dichroic mirror 3 is equipped with high transmittance film; Moving back pressure adjusts Q module to be electrically connected with Q-switch 5.
As a result, when starting pumping source 1, the pump light that pumping source 1 emits just passes sequentially through pump coupling unit 2, double-colored It is totally reflected by speculum 6 after mirror 3, laser gain medium 4 and Q-switch 5, the light beam after the reflection of speculum 6 is then opened again by Q Pass 5 and laser gain medium 4 simultaneously reflect output by speculum 6.As it can be seen that the laser structure is simple, simple operation, by swashing One end plating of optical gain medium 4 towards dichroic mirror 3 sets high transmittance film, and the pumping for emitting pumping source 1 using pump coupling unit 2 Light all focuses on high transmittance film after passing through dichroic mirror 3, so that it may and so that the inverted population in laser gain medium 4 is significantly increased, To not only significantly improve gain, ensure that laser is once getted over i.e. exportable in intracavitary, and then effectively controls pulse width, And improve single pulse energy.In addition, moving back pressure tune Q module since the laser uses, there is no need to 1/4 wave is arranged again Piece, reduce cost and meanwhile also assure pulsewidth output stability.
