Abstract

The invention discloses a 1,580nm single-wavelength solid laser capable of detecting CO and CO2, and belongs to the fields of solid laser materials and devices. A boron aluminate laser crystal doped with Er<3+> and Yb<3+> is adopted as a gain medium, the transmittance of an input dielectric film and an output dielectric film of a laser cavity is designed by combining the high laser performance of the crystal at the waveband of 1.5 to 1.6 mu m and the characteristic of gain peak of the crystal at the wavelength of 1,580nm, and 1,580nm single-wavelength solid laser output is realized by utilizing infrared laser pumping at wavebands in the vicinity of 976nm. 1,580nm single-wavelength solid laser with high output power and high beam quality can be used for CO and CO2 detection.

Description

[0001] Technical field [0002] The invention relates to the field of solid laser materials and devices. Background technique [0003] 1580nm is CO and CO 2 The gas is located at an absorption peak wavelength in the near-infrared band. Therefore, the 1580nm wavelength laser that is safe for the human eye can be used for trace CO and CO 2 Long-range gas detection has important military and civilian value and broad market prospects. Currently used to detect CO and CO 2 The gas laser absorption spectrometer (laser absorption spectrometer, LAS) light source mainly uses 1580nm semiconductor laser. Since the quality of the output beam of the semiconductor laser is poor, and the output laser wavelength changes with the working temperature and output power, it is limited in measurement accuracy and sensitivity. [0004] Currently, using Er 3+ And Yb 3+ The ion double-doped boroaluminate crystal has been used as a gain medium to achieve high-performance laser operation in the 1.5-1.6 μm ba...
