Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a single-frequency solid-state Raman laser, belonging to the technical field of lasers. Background technique [0002] Due to its long coherence length, narrow spectral line width, and low noise, single-frequency lasers are widely used in the fields of laser radar, laser ranging, laser medical treatment, spectroscopy, and nonlinear optical frequency conversion. At present, in the research of solid-state single-frequency lasers, methods such as torsional mode resonators, short resonators, etalons or birefringent filters inserted into the resonators are generally used to make the laser operate in a single longitudinal mode. [0003] Raman lasers are lasers based on the principle of stimulated Raman scattering, through which we can obtain many special wavelengths that solid-state lasers cannot directly emit. The Raman laser output spectrum achieved by many conventional Raman lasers at the current stage is generally relatively broa...

Problems solved by technology

Theoretically, the optical power density in the cavity must be very high to achieve Raman output, but in this patent document, in order to obtain single-frequency fundamental-frequency light, the etalon (reflectivity of fundamental-frequency light is 35%) is placed in the cavity with severe loss in the fundamental-frequency cavity Optical power density makes it difficult for Raman light to vibrate
