Description

Device and method for generating efficient mid-infrared vortex laser
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a laser device and method, and more particularly, to a device and method for generating efficient mid-infrared vortex laser.
Background
The mid-infrared 2.8 mu m laser is positioned in a water strong absorption band and is positioned in an atmospheric window, has important application value and prospect in the fields of laser medical treatment, infrared tracking, photoelectric countermeasure, laser radar, optical remote sensing detection and the like, and is one of coherent light sources which are urgently needed to be developed at present. The vortex light beam is a light beam with an equal phase surface in spiral distribution, carries orbital angular momentum along the light beam propagation direction, and shows remarkable application potential in the fields of quantum information, optical communication, optical manipulation, nonlinear optics, quantum entanglement and the like.
Among the numerous 2.8 μm active ions (e.g., er) 3+ 、Ho 3+ 、Dy 3+ Etc.), er 3+ The laser technology is the most mature and widely applied. But Er is currently doped 3+ The maximum continuous output power of the all-solid-state laser is only 10.14W, and ten years are spent on jumping from watt level to ten watt level, so that the development of the 2.8 μm laser is slower. This is due to Er 3+ The interval between the upper energy level and the lower energy level of the 2.8 mu m laser is smaller, multi-phonon relaxation is easy to occur, the upper energy level particles are transferred to the lower energy level of the laser by taking phonons as media, the output efficiency of the laser is reduced, and the heat effect of the laser crystal is aggravated. In addition, the serious thermal effect caused by the high quantum defect of the 2.8 μm laser easily causes adverse factors such as laser beam deterioration and crystal cracking, and further limits the laser output power and efficiency. The annular pump is considered as an effective mode for obtaining high-quality vortex optical rotation, does not need an additional intracavity mode selection element and a specially-made output coupling mirror, has the advantages of compact structure, small intracavity loss, high damage threshold and the like, and is favorable for obtaining high-efficiency vortex laser output.
Because the development of the 2.8 mu m laser technology is delayed, and the research on the vortex solid-state laser technology is relatively late, the research on the vortex solid-state laser technology in the mid-infrared band is less at present. How to efficiently and conveniently generate the 2.8 mu m vortex laser with high efficiency is still an important scientific problem.
