Description

A Ho-based: passive Q-switched laser of SSO saturable absorber
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a pulse laser technical field and nonlinear optics field, concretely relates to passively transfer Q laser.
Background
Both passive and active Q-switching techniques can achieve pulsed laser emission, but both have features and advantages compared to each other. Passive Q-switching is generally an important tool for achieving microsecond long pulses and sub-microsecond pulses, while active Q-switching is generally the dominant method for generating nanosecond and tens of nanosecond short pulses. In the passive Q-switching technique, the switching response time of the saturable absorber and the relaxation time of the excited electrons generally affect the time width, repetition frequency, and symmetry of the pulse shape of the Q-switching pulse. In general, fast saturable absorbers are well suited for generating short pulses and high repetition frequency emissions, however, microsecond and sub-microsecond pulse outputs can be obtained using slow saturable absorbers. Since sub-microsecond pulses have specific technical applications, the search for slow saturable absorbers with appropriate response times is also an important issue in the current laser field. In recent years, in the development and application of saturable absorbers available in the 2 μm band, many kinds of novel materials have been explored, including Cr2 +: ZnS and Ho: lu AG equal phase material. In the passive Q-switched laser, the output wavelength can be continuously tuned, and the tunable range covers 1.8-2.1 mu m wave band. It is worth mentioning that the output efficiency is significantly reduced by using tunable means to obtain laser output of the edge band (e.g. 1.8-1.9 μm).

The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary only for explaining the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for detecting a signal based on Ho: the passive Q-switched laser of the SSO saturable absorber comprises a semiconductor laser 1, a coupling lens group 2, a Tm: YLF crystal 3, first concave totally reflecting mirror 4, Ho: an SSO saturable absorber 6, an output mirror 7; the output end of the semiconductor laser 1 is opposite to the coupling lens group 2, and the coupling lens group 2 is connected with a Tm: YLF crystal 3 relative, the Tm: YLF crystal 3 is relative with the concave surface of first concave surface total reflection mirror 4, first concave surface total reflection mirror 4 is relative with the concave surface of second concave surface total reflection mirror 5, second concave surface total reflection mirror 5 and Ho: the input end of the SSO saturable absorber 6 is opposite, and the Ho: the output of the SSO saturable absorber 6 is opposite to the input of the output mirror 7;

The saturable absorber has the working principle that: the absorption of the saturable absorber material to the laser in the cavity can change along with the intensity of the optical field, when the light intensity is weaker, the light absorption is strong, the loss in the cavity is increased, and therefore the light transmittance is very low. As the light intensity increases, Ho: the absorption of the SSO material to light is weakened, the loss in the cavity is reduced, when the light intensity exceeds a specific value, the absorption is saturated, and the light transmittance can reach 100 percent, so that the light intensity receives the minimum loss while obtaining the maximum laser pulse, and the strong pulse laser is output. Furthermore, because Ho: the SSO crystal has larger energy level splitting, a wide emission spectrum area with an absorption spectrum bandwidth and good thermal conductivity, so that the requirement on generation of the passive Q-switched submicrosecond pulse in the wave band of 1.8-2.1 mu m can be met.
