Both YVO_4 and LuVO_4 can work as Raman gain, and slightly different active vibration modes of both crystals can result in different first-Stokes wavelengths. The output characteristic as the Raman competition between YVO_4 and LuVO_4 crystals for the laser systems with both shared cavity and coupled cavity is experimentally investigated.For the shared cavity, simultaneous Raman conversion in both YVO_4 and LuVO_4 crystals is achieved with dualwavelength emission at 1175.8 and 1177.1 nm. The maximum output power of 1.03 W and the conversion efficiency of 10.3% are obtained. The 0.84 W single first Stokes wavelength at 1177.1 nm with LuVO_4 Raman conversion is achieved with the coupled cavity. The results show that the coupled cavity with short Raman cavity can obtain a narrow pulse width. The separated laser crystal and Raman gain media with different vanadates in shared cavity have advantages in achieving dual-wavelength lasers with small frequency intervals.展开更多

文摘通过LD端面抽运Nd∶YAG激光腔镜膜系的合理设计,抑制Nd∶YAG晶体最强跃迁对应的1064 nm波长和相邻的1319 nm波长的激光振荡,成功实现了1338 nm单波长激光输出。实验中对比了平平和平凹腔型,研究了连续运转和声光调Q模式下的激光输出。连续运转模式时,在12.9 W的抽运功率下,获得了最高3.25 W的1338 nm激光输出;声光调Q模式下,1338 nm激光的平均输出功率和脉冲宽度随着重复频率的减小而下降。在12.9 W的抽运功率下,当声光调Q重复频率从15 k Hz减少到5 k Hz,平均输出功率由2.8 W降低到1.9 W,对应的脉冲峰值功率由1.7 k W升高到5.4 k W。
