Abstract

The invention provides a crystal laser device side pumped by laser diode and employing a fluorinated lutetium-lithium crystal dual-doped with thulium and holmium, which is characterized by adopting laser diode array side pump; a laser resonance cavity consists of a back reflection mirror and a front reflection mirror between which Tm:Ho:LuLF crystal is disposed. The invention has compact structure, low pumping threshold value, large pulse energy and the laser output wavelength is approximately 2 mum m, and the pulse repetition frequency is adjustable, so that the invention has widely application prospect on the aspects of laser ranging, coherent Doppler wind-finding radar and so on.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser, especially a thulium-holmium double-doped lutetium-lithium fluoride crystal laser pumped by the side of a laser diode, especially the whole cavity structure and the pumping mode of a semiconductor diode. Background technique [0002] Nd:CaWO with scheelite structure 4 Crystal is the first crystal to achieve continuous laser output at room temperature, and yttrium lithium fluoride (hereinafter referred to as YLF) crystal is a very useful laser host crystal that has been screened from scheelite structure crystal materials after calcium scheelite crystal. It has a tetragonal crystal structure, and trivalent rare earth ions can replace Y 3+ Lattice, without charge compensation, so many rare earth ions have achieved polarized laser output after doping. Thulium Tm 3+ and Holmium Ho 3+ At the same time, when it is doped in YLF crystal, it can generate laser light with a wavelength of 2 μm. [0003] See Figure 1, Tm 3+ a...
