Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a CrOCl crystal-based laser pulse modulator and its application in all solid-state lasers, belonging to the technical field of lasers. Background technique [0002] Laser is hailed as one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century, and has formed a huge industry since its development, affecting all fields of the national economy. Pulse laser has the advantages of high peak power, large energy, and short pulse time. It is an important component and development direction of laser, and has important applications in many fields such as national defense, scientific research, and medical treatment. The techniques for realizing pulsed laser can be roughly divided into two categories: active modulation and passive modulation. The method of adjusting the loss in the laser generation process through the saturable absorption characteristics of the material itself to obtain pulsed laser is called passive modulation technology. Passiv...
