Problems solved by technology

In addition, compared with the active Q-switching technology, passive Q-switching is simpler and more convenient, because passive Q-switching requires small components and does not require an external drive device, Co 2+ :YAG, V 3+ : Both YAG and semiconductor saturable absorption mirrors are used as Q-switched devices for 1.3μm lasers, the literature "Diode-end-pumpedpassivelyQ-switched1319nmNd:YAGceramiclaserwithaV 3+ The use of V 3+ :YAG is a passively Q-switched Nd:YAG ceramic laser with a saturable absorber. The working wavelength is 1319nm. The application of short-pulse lasers does not meet the requirements

Abstract

The invention relates to a 1319nm laser passively Q-switched all-solid state laser and belongs to the solid state laser technical field. The 1319nm laser passively Q-switched all-solid state laser comprises a pump source, a coupling lens group, a resonant cavity and the like. A laser crystal and a saturable absorber are arranged in the resonant cavity. A temperature control system maintains constant temperature for the crystal and the devices. The 1319nm laser passively Q-switched all-solid state laser is characterized in that a Co:LMA crystal is adopted as the saturable absorber to perform Q-switching on a Nd:YAG ceramic laser, so that 1.3-micron m short pulse laser output can be obtained, and ultimately, average power can be 1.58W, and shortest pulse width can be 23ns. The 1.3-micron m short pulse laser generated by the laser of the invention has near-zero dispersion in a silica optical fiber and has low loss. The laser of the invention can be widely applied to optical fiber communication, and can play an important role in medical aspects such as pulmonary metastases and dentistry.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a 1319nm laser passive Q-switching all-solid-state laser, which belongs to the technical field of solid-state lasers. Background technique [0002] The 1.3μm laser has very important applications. First of all, 1.3μm laser has near-zero dispersion and low loss in quartz fiber, and is widely used in optical fiber communication. According to existing reports, 1.3μm laser also plays an important role in lung metastases and dentistry. In addition, 1.3μm laser Red light and 1.5μm eye-safe laser can be obtained respectively by frequency doubling conversion and Raman scattering. [0003] At present, the usual means of obtaining 1.3μm laser is to use Nd 3+ of 4 f 3 / 2 - 4 f 13 / 2 Energy level conversion, such as Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Nd:YVO4 and Nd:YAG ceramics, Nd:YAG is the most widely used gain medium in solid-state lasers, but Nd:YAG ceramics have superior performance. In the existing reports, the research on Nd:YAG ceramics mainly ...
