Abstract

The invention provides a passive mode-locking laser, which comprises a pump source used for outputting pump laser, a dichroic mirror, a laser crystal, a first concave mirror, a second concave mirror, a third concave mirror, a first plane mirror, a second plane mirror, a third plane mirror, a fourth plane mirror, an output mirror and a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM), wherein laser emitted by the pump source passes through the dichroic mirror and is transmitted to the laser crystal; oscillation starting gain laser is transmitted to the first concave mirror, is sequentially reflected by the first concave mirror, the first plane mirror, the second plane mirror, the third plane mirror and the third concave mirror and is finally transmitted to the SESAM; the SESAM reflects the laser and returns the laser in the original path, the laser reaches the dichroic mirror and is sequentially reflected to the output mirror through the dichroic mirror, the second concave mirror and the fourth concave mirror; and after oscillation starting, mode-locking laser with high power and high beam quality is output through the output mirror.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an LD (Laser Diode, laser diode) end-pumped passive mode-locked laser, in particular to a passive mode-locked laser realized by a saturable absorber (SESAM). Background technique [0002] The all-solid-state picosecond laser is obtained by mode-locking technology, and the pulse duration is on the order of picoseconds (10 -12 ) ultrashort pulse laser, which has extremely wide application value in the fields of national defense, industry, medical treatment, and scientific research. Among them, a stable and reliable picosecond oscillator with high beam quality can become the seed source of a high-power all-solid-state picosecond laser amplifier, which is the basis for a wide range of applications. Therefore, obtaining a stable, high-power, high-beam-quality picosecond oscillator becomes a top priority. [0003] Passive mode locking with a saturable absorber (SESAM) is the most important means to obtain gain medium picosecond osc...
