Description

The high-performance solid laser pumping
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of solid state laser pumping.
Background technology
Solid state laser is one type of solid state laser that is widely used, extensive application aspect laser processing, laser labelling, scientific research or the like.Solid laser material commonly used has the doped yttrium aluminum garnet class, mixes and fluoridize lithium fluoride like, doped yttrium vanadate and doping potassium-gadolinium class etc., and the characteristics of their absworption peaks are to have a plurality of absworption peaks and discrete each other.Present laser pumping source; Except that diode-end-pumped is to a certain absworption peak, the sunlight of all the other pumping sources such as xenon lamp, bromine tungsten filament lamp, krypton lamp, mercury lamp and proposition in recent years etc., its spectral distribution scope is all than broad; The wave band of the Energy distribution of significant proportion beyond the absworption peak of solid laser material; Especially partly there is the energy of significant proportion to can not get effective utilization the visible light short wavelength,, the heat radiation of solid state laser proposed requirements at the higher level because this part Conversion of energy be hot.
Semiconductor-quantum-point is the granular materials of a kind of size in several nanometers; The preparation method is comparative maturity also; As utilize directly growth quantum point in silicate glass, fluoride glass of high-temperature fusion annealing method, and also can be scattered in the quantum dot in the colloid with the chemical method generation, again these quantum dots are mixed organic optical materials; Like UV glue, PMMA etc., process the solid-state material that is mixed with quantum dot.Such as particle radius is the CdSe semiconductor nano of 2.1nm, and it all has stronger absorption to the light that wavelength is shorter than 600nm, and at the wave band place of 610nm emission peak is arranged.Big characteristics in addition of semiconductor nano; Can be through the quantum dot of preparation variable grain radius; Make its emission peak move to the specified wavelength position, its absworption peak is corresponding mobile also, can customize the semiconductor quantum spot size to the position of the absworption peak of solid state laser like this.

Further, the laser pumping mode is an end pumping, and the shape of material for transformation of wave length is a sheet.
Further, the laser pumping mode is at the profile pump through laser pump cavity, and the shape of material for transformation of wave length is the tubular with the laser pump cavity similar shape.
Further again, described laser pumping source can be one of xenon lamp, bromine tungsten filament lamp, krypton lamp or sunlight, or its combination.
The utility model is through placing a kind of material for transformation of wave length that is mixed with semiconductor-quantum-point between solid laser material and pump light source; The light of the short wavelength of this wavelength absorption solid laser pumping light part also is converted into the light at laser material absworption peak place, makes that originally the light in laser material absworption peak scope is not absorbed by laser material.The utility model improves the method for solid state laser pumping utilization ratio; The laser that can be used for xenon lamp or sunlight pumping; The laser that both can be used for end pumping also can be used for the laser of profile pump, has to need not laser structure is done advantages such as big adjustment, method be simple.
The principle of utility model is following:
Realize through between solid laser material and pump light source, placing a kind of material for transformation of wave length.This material for transformation of wave length is a kind of optical material that is doped with the lead selenide quantum dot of suitable particles radius, and substrate can be optical glass or organic optical materials.When the pump light of laser shines on the material for transformation of wave length, the light of its short wavelength's part is absorbed by material for transformation of wave length, and luminous.The particle radius of choose reasonable quantum dot makes the emission wavelength of material for transformation of wave length be in the absorption bands of solid laser material, makes that originally the light in solid laser material absworption peak scope is not absorbed by solid laser material.
The method of the raising solid state laser pumping utilization ratio of the utility model can be used for the solid state laser of xenon lamp, bromine tungsten filament lamp, krypton lamp or sunlight pumping, both can be used for the laser of end pumping, also can be used for the laser of profile pump.
The size of semi-conducting material is reduced to certain size (the Bohr radius of the bound exciton in the semiconductor piece material) when following; Its energy level will produce separate structure; And generation quantum size effect; The center that is its emission peak changes with the size of quantum dot, and the quantum dot that therefore can prepare different size is to produce the wavelength of needs.Because the process characteristic of quantum dot preparation, the quantum dot size of preparation presents a Unimodal Distribution, and the spectrum of generation has certain width (about tens nanometers).Prepare the different quantum dot of particle size under the Different Preparation condition, the centre wavelength of the spectrum that they produce is different.Rationally control preparation condition; The emission peak of the feasible quantum dot that produces is in the absworption peak place of solid laser material; These quantum dots will be the light that is in the quantum dot absorption spectrum, is converted into the light that can be absorbed by solid laser material, thereby pump energy is provided for solid laser material.
The preparation of material for transformation of wave length has two kinds of basic skills: the one, and utilize fusion method directly in glass, to produce quantum dot, can be silicate glass or borate glass; The 2nd, produce the quantum dot that is scattered in colloid with chemical method, again these quantum dots are mixed transparent optical material and mix (like optics ultraviolet glue, PMMA etc.), process the solid-state material that is mixed with quantum dot.
The pump mode of laser has two kinds of end pumping and profile pumps.For the end pumping form, be prepared into tabular to the solid-state material that is mixed with quantum dot, the tangent plane of size and laser crystal is suitable, and is placed on the end of laser crystal.If profile pump, being prepared into cylindrical tubular to the solid-state material that is mixed with quantum dot, inner surface should be fitted closely with the cylindrical outer surface of laser crystal, and the solid-state material that perhaps will be mixed with quantum dot evenly covers the inner surface of laser condenser.
The utility model has the advantages that: energy utilization efficiency improves.
