Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.
The invention is further described with reference to the following drawings and specific examples, which are not intended to be limiting.
In a first embodiment, with reference to fig. 1, the invention provides an electro-optical Q-switch based on a relaxor ferroelectric single crystal, which is characterized by comprising an optical fiber coupled semiconductor laser 1, a back mirror 2, and an Nd: YVO4 A crystal 3, a polarization beam splitter 4, a quarter wave plate 5, an eighth wave plate 6, a PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 and an output mirror 8,
the fiber coupled semiconductor laser 1 is used for generating laser pulse with expected central wavelength, and the laser output after the laser pulse is transmitted by the back reflector 2 passes through Nd: YVO4The crystal 3 realizes wavelength conversion and gain amplification, and outputs linearly polarized light through the polarization beam splitter 4;
when the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 has no external voltage:
linearly polarized light enters a PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 after being subjected to phase delay through a quarter-wave plate 5 and an eighth-wave plate 6, transmitted light after the phase delay of incident light is carried out by the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is reflected by an output mirror 8, and is subjected to phase delay through the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 in the reverse direction, and then the phase delay caused by the birefringence effect of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is carried out by the eighth-wave plate 6The position compensation is carried out, the polarization direction of the laser reaching the polarization beam splitter 4 through the quarter-wave plate 5 is vertical to the polarization direction of the laser incident into the polarization beam splitter 4, and the laser cannot pass through the polarization beam splitter 4; at this time, Nd is YVO4The working substance in the crystal 3 is continuously accumulated, and the laser resonant cavity is in a low Q state at the current stage;
when the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is applied with voltage, the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is equivalent to a quarter wave plate:
linearly polarized light is subjected to phase delay through the quarter-wave plate 5 and the eighth-wave plate 6, then enters the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 for phase delay, transmitted light of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is reflected by the output mirror 8, then reversely passes through the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7, the eighth-wave plate 6 and the quarter-wave plate 5, the polarization direction of laser reaching the polarization beam splitter 4 through the quarter-wave plate 5 is the same as that of incident laser of the polarization beam splitter 4, and the laser reversely reaching the polarization beam splitter 4 passes through the polarization beam splitter 4 and then reaches the rear reflector 2 through the Nd, namely YVO4 crystal 3; in the present stage, the laser resonant cavity is in a high-Q state, and after strong laser oscillation is established in the laser resonant cavity, laser pulses are output through the output mirror 8. The quarter-wave plate 5 is used to provide a phase retardation of pi/4.
In this embodiment, a laser resonator is formed between the rear mirror 2 and the output mirror 8.
By way of example, the fiber-coupled semiconductor laser 1 generates laser pulses with a center wavelength of 808nm, a repetition frequency of 10Hz to 2kHz, a pulse duration of 100 mus, and a pump pulse energy of up to 3.7 mJ.
The pump light with 808nm central wavelength can be absorbed by Nd: YVO4 crystal 3 and converted into output light with 1064nm, and in the process, the Nd: YVO4 crystal 3 is used as a gain medium in a laser resonant cavity. To avoid the effect of thermal deposition, the repetition frequency was set to 10Hz to 2kHz and the pulse duration was set to 100 mus.
The rear mirror 2 has a high reflectivity (> 99.5%) at 1064nm and a high transmission (> 99.6%) at 808nm, with the output mirror 8 having a reflectivity of 10% at a wavelength of 1064 nm.
In the present embodiment, by applying a voltage control signal, i.e., having a repetition frequency of 10Hz to 2kHz, to the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7Pulse Vπ/2And voltage is applied to enable the Q switch to be in a working state. When no external voltage is applied to the crystal, the laser passes through the quarter-wave plate twice, the polarization direction reaching the polarizer is vertical to the incident polarization, and the phase delay caused by the birefringence of the crystal is compensated by the eighth-wave plate, so that the laser cannot pass through the polarizer. At the moment, the working substances in the Nd: YVO4 crystal are continuously accumulated, and the laser resonant cavity is in a low Q state at the current stage. When the working voltage acts on the PIN-PMN-PT crystal, the crystal is equivalent to a quarter-wave plate, after the laser is reflected by the reflector and passes through the crystal and the quarter-wave plate twice, the polarization state of the laser is unchanged, strong laser oscillation is established in the resonant cavity, the resonant cavity is in a high-Q state, and pulse laser with the wavelength of 1064nm is emitted at the output end of the resonant cavity.
As an example, the fiber diameter of the fiber-coupled semiconductor laser 1 is 200 μm, and the numerical aperture is 0.22. May be adapted to the cavity formed between the rear mirror 2 and the output mirror 8.
YVO4 crystal 3 includes 0.5 at.% Nd doped YVO cut in the alpha direction with dimensions of 3mm 5mm, as an example4A crystal; the light output surface of the YVO4 crystal 3 during light forward transmission is a polished surface and is oriented at the Brewster angle. The Nd: YVO4 crystal 3 is used as a gain medium of the oscillator and can prevent parasitic oscillation.
Further, the eighth wave plate 6 is used for compensating the optical phase retardation of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 caused by birefringence when no external voltage is applied.
The PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 belongs to a biaxial crystal in the orthogonal phase, which causes a phase delay due to a birefringence effect, as compared with uniaxial crystals LN and DKDP. Therefore, the eighth wave plate 6 is added in the resonant cavity, and the position of the eighth wave plate is adjusted, so that the phase delay of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 caused by birefringence can be completely compensated, the oscillation is closed in a non-operation mode, the laser cavity is in a high-loss state, and the laser output power is zero. The use of the eighth wave plate 6 for phase compensation has the advantage of a simple construction and continuous adjustability.
Further, the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is light-transmitted along the [100] crystal direction, and anti-reflection films are plated on two corresponding crystal faces.
In order to reduce the light intensity loss generated by the reflection of the crystal surface, anti-reflection films are plated on two light-passing surfaces of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7, so that the transmittance of the crystal under the wavelength of 1064nm reaches 99.6%.
As an example, the anti-reflection film comprises an inner layer film and an outer layer film, wherein the inner layer film is HfO2The outer layer of the film is SiO2The film is coated by adopting an electron beam evaporation method of ion beam assisted deposition.
Still further, the process of plating the anti-reflection film on the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 comprises the following steps:
using 99.95% HfO2Target and 99.99% SiO2A target;
during film coating, on HfO2Target and SiO2During the evaporation process of the target, the pressure in the vacuum state is lower than 3 x 10-3Pa, operating pressure maintained at 1X 10-2Pa, and oxygen was transported into the deposition chamber by a Coffeman ion source at a rate of 12 sccm.
In the whole deposition process, the temperature of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is 30 ℃ and is far lower than the phase change temperature of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal, so that the electric domain state in the crystal is not changed.
In the present embodiment, the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 was maintained at 30 ℃ during the process of plating the antireflection film.
In order to avoid phase change caused by the rise of the crystal temperature in the film plating process and change the state of the internal domain structure, the temperature of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal 7 is kept near the room temperature all the time during the film plating.
The specific embodiment is as follows:
a PIN-PMN-PT crystal of dimensions 5mm x 1.5mm was used to make a Q-switch and compared to commercial DKDP and LN crystal Q-switches: obtaining the size of a PIN-PMN-PT crystal Q switch
Figure BDA0003590024920000051
Comprises the following steps: 12mm × 3.4 mm; q-switch size compared to DKDP crystal
Figure BDA0003590024920000053
Q-switch size of 15mm x 18mm and LN
Figure BDA0003590024920000052
22mm x 22mm, a reduction of more than an order of magnitude.
The reason for the small size of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal Q switch is due to its large effective electro-optic coefficient rcIs 670pmV-1(ii) a Theoretically, decreasing the length of the Q-switch in the light-on direction leads to an increase in the operating voltage, according to the formula for the operating voltage of an electro-optical Q-switch:
Figure BDA0003590024920000061
in the formula Vπ/2Is a quarter-wave voltage, i.e. the operating voltage, λ is the wavelength, d is the distance between the two electrodes of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal, n is the refractive index, r iscIs the effective electro-optic coefficient, and l is the length of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal in the light-passing direction. Because the PIN-PMN-PT crystal has a large effective electro-optic coefficient, the working voltage is only 0.2kV, and the working voltage is reduced by 16 times and 6.5 times compared with DKDP and LN respectively.
The Q-switch made of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal was tested according to the structure shown in FIG. 1. Under the repetition frequency of 1kHz and the pumping energy of 3.7mJ, the pulse width output by the PIN-PMN-PT crystal is 1.8ns, and the performance of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal is obviously improved compared with that of a commercial Q switch. The PIN-PMN-PT crystal is capable of outputting smaller pulse widths because the pulse width is directly related to the time the laser light travels within the cavity, and the small size of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal reduces the extra optical path that the Q-switch insertion brings, i.e., the length of the electro-optic crystal in the direction of laser light propagation times the refractive index of the crystal. Therefore, the Q-switching time of the PIN-PMN-PT crystal in the cavity is shorter, which is beneficial to reducing the pulse width of the output laser.
Peak Power is another important performance parameter for Q-switches, and the maximum peak power output of a PIN-PMN-PT crystal Q-switch at a 1kHz repetition frequency with a pump energy of 3.7mJ is 154kW, which is almost the same as that of commercial DKDP and LN crystal Q-switches. This result further indicates that the PIN-PMN-PT crystal meets the standard for commercial Q-switches.

It is therefore to be understood that numerous modifications may be made to the illustrative embodiments and that other arrangements may be devised without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
