Abstract
The present invention provides a self-mode-locking laser which relates to the technical field of optoelectronic technique, in particular to the technical field of a laser. The self-mode-locking operation is realized by adopting the pumping self-mode-locking laser of a pulse laser; a continuous laser which is relatively large is not needed, the energy of output single pulses is high, and the pulse width of output mode-locking pulses is equal to the level when the continuous laser is in pumping operation; meanwhile, the self-starting operation of the self-locking mode of the laser is realized.
Description
The present invention relates to the photoelectron technology field, particularly relate to field of lasers.
Comprise ti sapphire laser at present in the world, the Cr:LiSAF laser, the Cr:YAG laser, mixing the self mode locking that chromium forsterite laser etc. realized all is (" 60-fsec pulse generation from a self-mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser ", the Opt.Lett. that adopt the continuous wave laser pumping to realize, 1991,16:42, D.E.Spence, P.N.Kean, therefore W.Sibbett), be self mode locking under the continuous state.The single pulse energy that such self mode-locked laser produces is minimum, if single pulse energy needs to amplify, amplifying stage needs to adopt the pulse laser pumping again, and this makes chirped pulse amplification system complicated (" 1.1-J, 120-fs laser system based on Nd:glass pumped Ti:sapphire ", Opt.Lett., 1996,8:603, J.Bonlie, D.F.Price, W.E.White).
Purpose of the present invention just is to realize self mode locking under the pulse laser pumping, can remove huge relatively continuous wave laser from, exports the single pulse energy height simultaneously.
Realize that technical scheme of the present invention is, the pump light line focus system 2 that pulse laser 1 produces focuses on the laser medium 7.Self mode-locked laser is by spherical reflector 3,4, the folding laser cavity of Z font four mirrors that plane mirror 5,6 is formed, and wherein plane mirror 6 is outgoing mirrors that the part transmission is arranged.Self mode locking need be by adjusting the distance of focusing system 2 and laser medium 7, and the distance of spherical reflector 3,4 and laser medium 7 and obtaining.
For the consideration of pulse self mode-locked laser space compactedness, also can be arranged into X font four mirror refrative cavities to above-mentioned self mode-locked laser.
In order to obtain the synchronous ultrashort pulse output of two-way, one tunnel output is as pump signal, and another road can be designed to the annular chamber self mode-locked laser to above-mentioned self mode-locked laser as detectable signal.
The nonlinear refractive index of some laser medium is too little, the self-focusing effect of self is not enough to realize self mode locking, perhaps can realize self mode locking, but self mode locking is difficult to self-starting, all can adopt the bigger auxiliary nonlinear dielectric of nonlinear refractive index to realize the self-starting of self mode locking, can place the bigger nonlinear dielectric 10 of nonlinear refractive index between the spherical reflector 8,9 of above-mentioned self mode-locked laser, form a little confocal cavity, whole self mode locking laser cavity becomes the six mirror refrative cavities of being made up of spherical reflector 3,4,8,9 and plane mirror 5,6.
The present invention substitutes huge relatively continuous wave laser with pulse laser and realizes self mode locking as pumping source, self mode-locked laser output single pulse energy height.
Now accompanying drawing is made brief description: Fig. 1 is the Z font self mode-locked laser schematic diagram of pulse laser pumping; Fig. 2 is the X font self mode-locked laser schematic diagram of pulse laser pumping; Fig. 3 is the annular chamber self mode-locked laser schematic diagram of pulse laser pumping; Fig. 4 is six mirror chamber self-starting self mode-locked laser schematic diagrames of pulse laser pumping;
Embodiment 4, as shown in Figure 4, in the self mode-locked laser chamber, arrange a little confocal cavity again, form by spherical reflector 8,9 and the bigger nonlinear dielectric 10 of nonlinear refractive index, though nonlinear dielectric 10 is not as laser medium, but it makes the less laser medium of nonlinear refractive index 7 be easy to realize self mode locking, perhaps make the easy self-starting of self mode locking of the bigger laser medium of nonlinear refractive index, it is the semiconductor laser of 670nm that pulse laser 1 adopts output wavelength, and laser medium 7 is Cr:LiSGAF.
