Description

Phosphate laser neodymium glass without thermal effect
The application is a divisional application of an invention patent application with the name of 'phosphate laser neodymium glass without thermal effect' with the application number of 201410781664.6 and the application date of 2014, 12 and 16.
Technical Field
The invention relates to phosphate laser neodymium glass, in particular to laser glass suitable for a high-power laser device, which has high stimulated emission cross section, low second-order nonlinear refractive index and no optical effect.
Background
The elimination of thermo-optic distortion is one of the major issues in the development of high energy laser glass. The athermal glass is glass with an optical path length which does not change along with temperature, namely the thermo-optic coefficient ds/dT is close to 0. Generally, when optical pumping is repeated to oscillate laser light, the temperature of glass increases, and the optical path length changes. Because the glass is heated and the temperature is not uniformly distributed, the optical path length change of the gradient is formed, and the wavefront deformation, namely the photo-thermal distortion, is caused. With the continuous enlargement of the scale of high-power laser devices, the laser output energy is continuously improved, and after the laser energy density of a unit surface area reaches a certain magnitude, the thermo-optic effect of laser glass must be emphasized.
The smaller the change in optical path length due to temperature change, i.e., the smaller ds/dT, the less likely photothermal distortion will occur. Phosphate laser neodymium glass is mainly used as a working substance of a laser amplifier in a high-power laser device, and in order to realize high gain, the stimulated emission cross section of the neodymium glass is required to be as large as possible, and the nonlinear refractive index n2As low as possible, but at the same time the effect of the thermo-optic effect of the glass cannot be neglected. Therefore, the reasonable formulation is needed, and the thermo-optic effect of the neodymium glass is reduced or eliminated as much as possible while the large stimulated emission section, the low second-order nonlinear refractive index and the high gain are obtained.
At present, phosphate laser neodymium glass such as N31 glass (N31 laser neodymium glass acceptance report, 12 months 1998) is in domestic use, although the stimulated emission cross section is higher (3.9 multiplied by 10)-20cm2) However, the thermo-optic coefficient (dS/dT ═ 14X 10)-7the/K) is large, and the requirement of a future high-power laser device on the low thermo-optic effect of the laser glass cannot be met.
US 4108673, US 5526369 and US5032315 disclose a phosphate laser neodymium glass respectively, but the phosphate laser neodymium glass does not belong to phosphate laser neodymium glass with high receiving and emitting cross section, low second-order nonlinear refractive index and no optical effect.

Further, the glass has a thermo-optic coefficient ds/dT (20-60 ℃) of 0.1 to 3 (10)-7/K)。
The invention has the beneficial effects that: the invention realizes that the thermo-optic coefficient ds/dT is close to 0 by reasonably selecting the components and the contents of the phosphate glass with small refractive index temperature coefficient and large expansion coefficient; the nonlinear refractive index n is reduced by reducing the linear refractive index and the dispersion of the phosphate laser neodymium glass2The object of (a); by increasing a plurality of components capable of improving the emission section of the neodymium ions and increasing the stimulated emission section of the neodymium glass, the comprehensive performance of the material is optimal, and the requirement of a high-power laser device can be met.
