Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of wind cooled, single mold green light laser of solid frequency double laser, particularly a kind of pumped at end face of semiconductor.
Technical background
Most traditionally solid state lasers all are the lamp pump laser.Pumping lamp mostly is from ultraviolet to infrared continuous broad spectrum light source.And laser medium, absorption spectra as Nd:YAG is 560~600nm, 720~770nm and three narrow wave bands of 780~820nm, therefore, a large amount of unabsorbed pump lights not only have no contribution to generation of Laser, on the contrary, can heat Nd:YAG rod and pumping cavity, make Nd:YAG form serious and unsettled thermal lensing effect.Vertical unstable thermal lensing effect makes laser produce multimode, pulse stretcher and power instability.Laterally thermal lensing effect makes the big thermal gradient of solid laser medium generation, forms tangential and radial stress birefringence effect, makes laser polarization state instability even depolarization, causes the decline of laser delivery efficiency, power to reduce and instability.In addition, the inefficiency of lamp pumping needing to cause large power supply and big capacity cooling-water machine, and the fluctuating of temperature control causes the instability of laser output again.
