Abstract

The invention relates to a function-doping based transparent ceramic slab pumping device. The pumping device comprises a laser gain medium, a pumping source, a laser resonator and a cooling temperature control device. According to the pumping device provided by the invention, slab transparent ceramic material is taken as the laser gain medium, a mode of pumping in large areas on upper and lower surfaces is adopted to increase the pumping area, reduce the reshaping difficulty of the pump light, and improve the maximum pumping power; and by using the characteristics of high-concentration doping and function doping of the transparent ceramic material, the high power pumping and the uniform absorption of the pumping light by the transparent ceramic material can be implemented, thereby reducing the internal longitudinal heat gradient of the transparent ceramic material, and improving the absorbing efficiency of the pumping light by the material and the output beam quality. Compared with an existing high-power slab laser pumping device, the pumping device provided by the invention is large in pumping area, low in reshaping difficulty of the pump light and small in internal heat gradient of the laser gain medium, and therefore, high-power pumping and the outputting of solid laser with high average power, high beam quality and high efficiency can be carried out.
