Description

With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light
With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light, it relates to laser technology field, particularly relates to a kind of by having the non-linear laser crystal of laser and nonlinear optical effect simultaneously---and self frequency-changing's crystal produces the Laser Devices of yellow laser.
With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light, angle from technical background, up to now, also there are not solid (crystal), this series products of semiconductor Yellow laser on the market, from bibliographical information, yet do not use the report that the mixing in the chamber of self frequency-changing's crystal produces yellow laser.Only in U.S. military project department, begun to note the research of Yellow laser, but, their technology path and patent of the present invention are completely different, they utilize special, as can to realize noncritical phase matching ktp crystal mixing in the chamber to obtain yellow laser output, luminous and frequency conversion is to be finished respectively by the quartz crystal device that has nothing in common with each other, thereby has increased cavity loss.Essence of the present invention is a kind of new way that has proposed research and made Yellow laser, its luminous and frequency conversion is finished by same quartz crystal device, by comparison, small compact not only arranged, adjust easily, stable advantage, and because element few (thereby cavity loss is little) certainly will will have higher luminous and conversion efficiency in the laser cavity.
Self frequency-changing's crystal is the sub-composite functional material of a kind of novel photoelectric, and it has the functional crystal of Laser emission and nonlinear optics frequency conversion simultaneously, so can be referred to as non-linear laser crystal to self frequency-changing's crystal again.Mix Nd at present 3+The representative self frequency-changing's crystal of excited ion has multiple, as Nd:YAl 3(BO 3) 4(NYAB), Nd:GdAl 3(BO 3) 4(NGAB), Nd:Y xGd 1-xAl 3(BO 3) 4(NYGAB), Nd:CaOY 4(BO 3) 3(NCYB), Nd:CaOGd 4(BO 3) 3(NCGB), Nd:Ba 2NaNb 5O 15(NBNN) etc., this crystal-like frequency conversion was used in the past, mainly be conceived to be used for producing the luminous of 1.06um and (green glow is 0.53um) or with residual pump light with produce blue light (≈ 0.46um) frequently from frequency multiplication; Also the someone begins on the basis of these self frequency-changing's crystal generations of research 1.34um laser (non-from frequency multiplication by frequency multiplication! ) generation ruddiness (0.67um).Shang Weiyou utilizes this crystal-like report that produces gold-tinted certainly with the frequency function.
With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light, purpose of the present invention just is to disclose a kind of with in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light.It is the new application technology of self frequency-changing's crystal exploitation, for photoelectron science and technology and industry thereof increase a kind of new laser type.Here the non-linear laser crystal that relates to only relates to Nd 3+Self frequency-changing's crystal of excited ion (be commonly called as in the past and be the self-frequency-doubling crystal).With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the Yellow laser of frequency to generate yellow light also can be many solid crystal lasers and increase a kind of pumping source, for laser medicine (as, inner ear treatment) technology is filled up a kind of new light sources.
With Nd 3+In self frequency-changing's crystal for excited ion, with NYAB (Nd:YAl 3(BO 3) 4) crystal is the RM (BO of representative 3) 4(wherein, R=Y, Gd; M=Al, Sc) crystalloid is extensively developed as relative self frequency-changing's quartz crystal device more with practical value always.(Nd:CaOY was arranged again in recent years with NCYB 4(BO 3) 3) crystalloid obtains broad research for self frequency-changing's crystal of new generation of typical case representative.This shows the utilization non-linear laser crystal---self frequency-changing's crystal development new unit has good material foundation.
Self frequency-changing's crystal was used to develop self-frequency-doubling laser in the past, and promptly this crystal plays luminous in laser cavity and the frequency multiplication effect simultaneously; Also be useful on from and frequency laser develop, promptly self frequency-changing's crystal sends a kind of laser of wavelength in laser cavity, and with this light and pump light by producing the light of another kind of wavelength with the frequency process.Though the present invention also be in the chamber from and frequency laser a kind of, but oneself and frequency laser that it is different from the past again, because it requires self frequency-changing's crystal in the chamber will send the laser of two kinds of wavelength simultaneously, and by nonlinear optics and frequently effect they are become the laser of another kind of wavelength automatically.
In order to obtain the efficient of luminous preferably and frequency translation simultaneously, except select suitable non-linear laser crystal be vital, the configuration of device is of crucial importance, in general laser desired pumping and chamber mirror the design with the plated film condition, mixing produces in the new laser of yellow laser in utilizing self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity, pay special attention to guarantee that the luminous exitance of propagating in the collinear phase matching of three ripples, enough optical power density and the crystal is enough little.
With in self frequency-changing's crystal intracavity and the laser of frequency to generate yellow light, require the laser generation that in same laser cavity cavity, produces 1.06um and 1.34um simultaneously, and simultaneously the nonlinear optics by crystal produce yellow laser with the frequency effect.The optical direction of crystal must satisfy the phase-matching condition of 1.06um and 1.34um and frequency to generate yellow light 0.59um.According to satisfying the conservation of energy (ω simultaneously in the nonlinear optical effect three ripple effect conversion process 31+ ω 2) and the conservation of momentum (k 3=k 1+ k 2) requirement of condition, the condition of three ripple collinear phase matching can be reduced to
n 3λ 3=n 1λ 2+ n 2λ 1The phase matched of three ripple mutual effects has two types in the nonlinear optical crystal.Set three light waves and satisfy ω 3>ω 2〉=ω 1, if dn/d λ≤0 is ω 1With ω 2Light wave have identical polarization state, the phase matched of this moment is called I class coupling; Otherwise, if ω 1With ω 2Light wave polarization each other be quadrature, the phase matched of this moment is II class coupling.
Phase matched is one of method that realizes the effective frequency conversion.Its general idea is to require three kinds of frequency (ω 1, ω 2, ω 3) light wave in nonlinear dielectric in the communication process, the phase velocity of three ripples must be identical.For simple, compact, the easy row, effectively of laser cavity structure, except selecting efficiently self frequency-changing's crystal, also on the phase matched type, select the conllinear matching way.Utilize the birefringence of nonlinear optical crystal and the purpose that dispersion characteristics can reach phase matched.The position condition that is complementary has critical influence to relevant nonlinear optical effect, if this condition is not satisfied, output light just may almost can't observe.
Realize that technology path of the present invention is, Yellow laser of the present invention is made up of pumping source (1), optical coupler (2), laser cavity deielectric-coating (3), self frequency-changing's crystal (4) and laser cavity outgoing mirror (5), in its laser cavity, only dispose a quartz crystal device---self frequency-changing's crystal element (4), the generation of laser is with integrated with frequency, utilize a quasi-nonlinear optical lasers crystal---luminous and oneself and frequency (self-mixing, SSFM) the generation yellow laser (6) of self frequency-changing's crystal.Pumping source (1) can be a semiconductor laser diode LD, and its pump mode is end pump (comprising single-ended or the both-end pumping structure) or side pump; It also can be the lamp pumping source.The yellow laser (6) that produces is continuous or pulsed.
From dynamic angle, the actual laser that has produced 3 kinds of wavelength simultaneously in the chamber, still, vibration is 1.06um and two kinds of wavelength of 1.34um in the chamber, what coupling was exported is laser---the yellow laser of the 3rd kind of wavelength.Two kinds of wavelength (1.06um and 1.34um) all are to have under the condition of pumping the luminescence center by non-linear laser crystal send, and the 3rd kind of wavelength then is by same non-linear laser crystal in the chamber---the nonlinear optical effect of self frequency-changing's crystal is with the laser of the two kinds of wavelength in the front 0.59um yellow laser by producing with the frequency mode.Realize that key problem in technology of the present invention is, at the different emission wavelengths of non-linear laser crystal different emission cross sections is arranged, strict relatively phase matched is just arranged and allow the angular breadth requirement at high conversion efficiency (mixing efficiency), therefore, must select the suitable self frequency-changing's crystal and the design of device thereof for use, the design of light path and output coupling mirror all be it is also noted that corresponding requirement.
The present invention not only have laser take place with and (mixing) incorporate characteristic frequently, luminous and mixing is by a multi-functional quartz crystal device---the non-linear laser crystal device is finished, thereby brings small compact, adjustment easily, practicability advantage such as stable.And not only have utilize technical very ripe but also the high-power LD that domesticized of commodity be the convenience of pumping source.
