The invention discloses a
solid laser with annular polarization compensation. The
solid laser with the annular polarization compensation comprises a
laser output mirror, a
lambda / 4 wave plate, a laser
gain medium, a polarizing
beam splitter, a first reflecting mirror, a
lambda / 2 wave plate and a second reflecting mirror, wherein laser in a
resonant cavity is split by the polarizing
beam splitter into polarization-state orthogonal light beams, i.e. laser p and laser s; after being transmitted in an annular closed light path, two beams of laser return to the polarizing
beam splitter and then are coupled into a main oscillation light path; and therefore, the compensated depolarized loss contributes to obtaining laser output with high average power,
high peak power and high
light beam quality. According to the
solid laser with the annular polarization compensation, the closed transmission and the compensation of orthogonal polarized light are realized through a polarizing
beam splitting principle and a wave plate rotation technique; by the adoption of Q-switching control on the
coupling main oscillation light path, when the high-efficiency operation is realized, the polarization output of the laser is obtained; the controllable polarization-state laser output is realized by rotating the
azimuth angle of the wave plate; and an annular polarization compensation method enables the length of the laser
resonant cavity to be effectively compressed, so that a higher electronic-to-optical conversion efficiency can be obtained.
