As shown in fig. 1, in some embodiments, the second laser structure 12 includes a polarization controller 121, a third lens 122, a raman crystal 123, and a fourth lens 124. A polarization controller 121 is disposed at the incident end of the third optical path 15, and the polarization controller 121 is configured to control the external polarization state of the incident laser beam. The third lens 122 is disposed in front of the polarization controller 121 along the propagation direction of the third optical path 15, and the third lens 122 is used for focusing the incident laser beam. The raman crystal 123 is disposed in front of the third lens 122 along the propagation direction of the third optical path 15, and the raman crystal 123 is used to adjust the wavelength band of the incident laser beam. The fourth lens 124 is disposed adjacent to the raman crystal 123 at the exit end of the third optical path 15, and the fourth lens 124 is configured to receive the laser beam emitted from the raman crystal 123 and collimate the laser beam. Specifically, the polarization state of the mid-wave infrared is controlled by the polarization controller 121 so that the polarization direction thereof is along the crystal axis direction of the diamond <111> plane to obtain the maximum raman gain. The third lens 122 is a calcium fluoride mid-infrared lens, and is used for focusing 3.9-4.7 μm mid-wave infrared laser on the center of the raman crystal 123. The Raman crystal 123 is a single crystal diamond crystal, and is refrigerated through a TEC refrigeration module, so that the crystal is kept at 18 ℃. The fourth lens 124 is a collimating lens, optionally a calcium fluoride mid-infrared lens, for collimating the generated long-wavelength raman laser. Because the diamond Raman frequency shift is 1332cm-1, the required wavelength of 8-12 μm long-wave infrared laser after Raman is calculated according to Vvib ═ 1/λ pump-1/λ stokes. By adopting such an arrangement, diamond is used as the raman crystal 123, self-phase matching is enabled, and raman gain is independent of the directions of the pump light and the output beam, so that high-luminance laser output can be obtained even in the case of pumping with low beam quality, and multi-beam non-collinear raman beam combining becomes possible.
As shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the polarization controller 121 includes a beam splitting prism 1211 and a half-wave plate 1212, and the half-wave plate 1212 is disposed in front of the beam splitting prism 1211 along the propagation direction of the third optical path 15. The combination of the beam splitter 1211 and the half-wave plate 1212 can adjust the polarization direction of the medium-wave infrared laser light to be parallel to the crystal axis direction of the 123<111> plane of the raman crystal, thereby obtaining the maximum raman gain.
According to the high-power long-wave infrared ultrafast laser system with adjustable wavelength, the femtosecond-assisted high-power pumping source 111 is arranged, a single-channel pumping structure is adopted, a complex optical path structure is omitted, the nonlinear crystal 114 can be subjected to waveguide structure design subsequently, full optical fiber of the whole system is expected to be achieved, integration and miniaturization of medium-wave infrared and long-wave infrared light sources are further achieved, and application of the system in more occasions is expanded. Meanwhile, by means of a focusing lens with a proper focal length and a five-dimensional high-precision adjusting translation table carrying the nonlinear crystal 114, the conversion efficiency and the output power of the long-wave infrared laser are improved by adjusting the size of a focusing light spot and the position of the focusing light spot at the center of the crystal, stable laser output can be obtained, and the use requirement is well met.
The specific operation of the high-power long-wave infrared ultrafast laser system with adjustable wavelength provided by the embodiment of the utility model is as follows:
the center wavelength of a commercial high-power femtosecond ultrafast pump source 111 is 1030nm, the emission pulse width is 500fs, the repetition frequency is 250KHz, the maximum average power is 20W, and the corresponding peak power is up to 160 MW. And performing optical path collimation on the pump beam through the two first reflectors 1121 under low power, and adjusting the height and direction of the optical path. The pump beam is focused in the PPLN nonlinear crystal 114 through the first lens 113, the nonlinear crystal 114 is carried on the high-precision temperature control module, and the temperature control module is fixed through the high-precision five-dimensional adjusting platform and is used for optimizing the position of the pump beam focusing spot in the nonlinear crystal 114, so that mode matching is realized. By tuning the reverse period of the nonlinear crystal 114 and the corresponding phase matching temperature, the wavelength tunable medium wave infrared output is realized in the nonlinear spontaneous parameter down-conversion process, and the pure medium wave band infrared laser beam output is realized by combining the medium infrared achromatic color of the second lens 116 and the 2.4 mu m long pass filter 117. In this example, the wavelength was 3.9-4.7 μm as measured by Fourier spectroscopy.
The obtained medium-wave infrared laser beam is reflected and converted by the two second reflectors 1151, so that the spatial light path is convenient to adjust, and the medium-wave infrared laser beam is used for pumping light of subsequent Raman. Then, the polarization direction of the medium wave infrared laser is adjusted through the beam splitter 1211 and the half-wave plate 1212, so that the polarization direction of the medium wave infrared laser is along the crystal axis direction of the 123<111> plane of the single crystal diamond Raman crystal, and the maximum Raman gain is realized. The middle infrared achromatic color of the third lens 122 focuses the middle wave infrared laser beam in the single crystal diamond Raman crystal 123, and due to the self-phase matching advantage, the position of the focused beam and the working temperature of the Raman crystal 123 do not need to be accurately adjusted, so that the optical path optimization adjustment in the nonlinear frequency conversion process is simplified. In this example, long-wavelength infrared laser light having a wavelength of 8 to 12 μm is generated. The high-power medium wave infrared output with adjustable wavelength is realized by increasing the average power of the pumping source 111 and adjusting the inversion period and the corresponding phase matching temperature of the PPLN nonlinear crystal 114, and the high-power and wavelength-tunable characteristics of long wave infrared are further realized by the Raman crystal 123.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the utility model, and any modifications, equivalents and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
