Abstract

The invention discloses a cooling method and a cooling device of an end pump laser. The end pump laser comprises a laser cavity and a laser crystal bar located in the laser cavity, a pumping mode of an end pump is adopted, and pumping lasers are focused inside the laser crystal bar. According to the cooling method of the end pump laser, a plurality of spraying devices are arranged on a cavity wall of the laser cavity, the spraying devices spray water mist to the laser crystal bar, an air inlet and an air outlet are arranged in the laser cavity and in the direction parallel with the laser crystal bar, and air flow in the laser cavity flows from the air inlet to the air outlet. The cooling method and the cooling device of the end pump laser are compact in structure, are good in cooling effect, and successfully resolve the problem that the end pump laser which can not be cooled with water can be cooled under the condition of high injection power.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solid-state lasers, and specifically relates to a cooling method and a cooling device for an end-pump laser, in particular to a cooling method that can be used to realize air-cooling under high injection power, so as to apply to inconvenient use of water cooling places, such as the laser source in the lidar system of a helicopter. Background technique [0002] Under the condition of high-power operation of solid-state lasers, the thermal effect generated by the temperature gradient distribution inside the gain medium occupies a dominant position in the distortion of the laser output mode, and the distortion generated by the thermal effect will lead to the instability of its output power and multiple modes. The coupling between them also limits the improvement of laser power, which seriously affects the performance of solid-state lasers. [0003] The main reasons for the thermal effect are: 1) The photon ...
