The application uses the above embodiments to explain the working principle of the electro-optic Q-switched cavity emptying laser as follows:
the pump light output by the pump light source 1 is shaped by the coupling lens group and then enters the laser crystal 5 through the pump mirror 4.
The electro-optic Q-switch crystal 10 pressurization process is shown in figure 2.
When no voltage is applied to the electro-optically Q-switched crystal 10, the polarization and transmission of the laser light in the resonant cavity are as shown in fig. 3, and the laser light in the cavity is reflected by the folding mirror 6 and then passes through the first polarizing plate 7 and the second polarizing plate 8, and the polarization direction is the S direction (vertical direction). After the S polarized light passes through the quarter-wave plate 9 with the principal axis direction forming 45 degrees with the polarization direction of the laser incident to the quarter-wave plate 9, the polarization direction is changed from the S direction to circular polarization, then the circular polarized laser passes through the electro-optic Q-switched crystal 10, is finally reflected by the full-mirror 11, and passes through the electro-optic Q-switched crystal 10 again, in the process, the polarization direction of the laser in the cavity is kept unchanged as circular polarization, and then passes through the quarter-wave plate 9, at the moment, the polarization direction of the laser is changed from the circular polarization direction to the P direction (horizontal direction), and when the laser passes through the second polarizer 8 placed at the brewster angle, the laser is completely transmitted out of the resonant cavity to form laser output.

At this time, the coupling output ratio of the laser is 0, the cavity loss is minimized, and the laser crystal 5 is inverted to reduce the population to be converted into oscillation laser light in the laser cavity.

Of course, the utility model discloses a cavity emptying laser also can be for the cavity emptying laser of all kinds of wavelengths such as 1.0um, 2.0um, various frequencies.
In the present example, a 976nm semiconductor laser pumping Er: Yb: YAB laser crystal 5, while modulated using electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10(RTP), achieves laser outputs of 100kHz, 3.3ns, 1531 nm. The equipment parameters in the examples are as follows:
the pump light source 1 is a semiconductor laser with a central wavelength of 976nm and a core diameter of 100um, and its output pump power is 27W in this example.
The coupling lens groups are all plano-convex lenses with the focal length of 50 mm.
The laser crystal 5 is a crystal of Er, Yb, YAB with refractive index n of 3 x 1.5mm (lc 1.5mm)cIs 1.75, and has a thermal focal length f of 15mm under a pump power of 27W. The front end surface is plated with 976nm high-transmittance and 1500-plus 1600nm total reflectionThe film was used as a pump mirror 4 (l1 ═ 0), and at the same time, the back end face was coated with 1500-.
The folding mirror 6 is a plano-concave lens with a curvature radius R of 100mm, and is 50mm away from the front end face l2 of the laser crystal 5.
The electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10 consists of two RTP crystals of the same size (4 x 10mm), the refractive index n of the crystal being such thate1.76, and the distance/. DELTA.between the two crystals was 5 mm. The distance l3 between the electro-optical Q-switching crystal 10 and the fold mirror 6 is 200 mm.
The total reflection mirror 11 is coated with a 1500-1600nm total reflection film, and the distance l3 between the total reflection film and the electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10 is 75 mm.
In addition, the resonant cavity is built in air, and laser light propagates in a medium in the air, so that n is 1.
Substituting the data into formula (1) can calculate the transmission matrix of the laser resonant cavity
The laser radius of each point in the resonant cavity can be calculated by the ABCD value.
Fig. 5 is the calculated laser radius distribution of each point in the resonant cavity, in fig. 5, point a is the rear end face of the laser crystal 5, point B is the reflection face of the folding mirror 6, point C is the front end face of the electro-optically tuned Q crystal 10, point D is the rear end face of the electro-optically tuned Q crystal 10, and point E is the total reflection mirror 11. As can be seen from fig. 5, after the laser light released from the laser crystal 5 in the resonator is reflected by the folding mirror 6, the change in the radius is gradually reduced, and the laser radius between the folding mirror 6 and the total reflection mirror tends to be uniform. The laser radius of the front end face C of the electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10 is 737.238um, the laser radius of the rear end face D of the electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10 is 736.425um, the laser radius variation is 0.813um, and the variation rate is only 0.11%, so that the laser radius passing through the electro-optical Q-switched crystal 10 can be regarded as unchanged. Fig. 6 is a laser pulse sequence chart obtained by experiment, each pulse peak value is almost consistent, and the pulse energy difference is less than 2%; fig. 7 is a fluctuation curve of the average laser output power with time, and it can be seen from the graph that the change rate of the laser output power is 2.3%, and the laser output power has good stability. Fig. 8 and 9 are graphs of the laser radius distribution in the resonant cavity at the respective radii of curvature R of the folding mirror 6 of 200mm and 400 mm. When the curvature radius is 200mm, the variation of laser spots at two positions of the electro-optically Q-switched crystal 10C, D is 0.145um, and the variation rate is 0.011 percent; when the curvature radius is 400mm, the laser facula variation amount of the electro-optically Q-switched crystal 10C, D at two positions is 0.019um, and the variation rate is 0.000726%. It can be known that, when the curvature radius R of the folding mirror 6 is larger, the difference of the laser radius passing through the electro-optical crystal is smaller. The use of a plano-concave lens with a large radius of curvature as the folding mirror 6 is more effective when experimental conditions permit.
