Abstract

The invention provides an edge covering method for large-diameter titanium-doped sapphire crystals. The edge covering method mainly comprises the step of by employing the edge covering technique for aluminum oxide ceramics doped with transition metal ions such as chromium, iron and copper and by a ceramic sintering process, growing rare-earth ion doped aluminum oxide ceramic grains along the titanium-doped sapphire crystals, so that the titanium-doped sapphire crystals are combined with the ceramic edge covering material. Simultaneously, the ASE (Amplified Spontaneous Emission) effect of the large-diameter titanium-doped sapphire crystals is inhibited by virtue of absorption of transition metal ions such as chromium, iron and copper to light about 800 nm. The edge covering method for the large-diameter titanium-doped sapphire crystals is adopted, so that the influence of the ASE effect on laser amplification is greatly reduced; and as a result, the peak power of a titanium-doped sapphire crystal solid laser device is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-power solid-state laser, in particular to a large-diameter titanium-doped sapphire crystal wrapping method. Background technique [0002] In a high-power solid-state laser device using titanium-doped sapphire crystal as the gain medium, in order to obtain high-energy laser pulse output, it is necessary to use a titanium-doped sapphire crystal with a large diameter and high doping concentration of active ions, but such a titanium-doped sapphire crystal is easier The transverse spontaneous emission amplification effect (ASE) is generated. The existence of this effect makes laser amplification very difficult, and it has also become a technical bottleneck for improving the gain of titanium-doped sapphire crystal solid-state lasers. [0003] The existing technology mainly relies on organic ink or hot-melt resin doped with carbon powder to make hemming materials for hemming treatment. The hemming materials used are all organic...
