Embodiment 1

[0027] This example figure 1 As shown, the injection laser is injected from the left end, after passing through the first polarization beam splitter (1), the polarization state changes to P polarization, and after passing through the half-wave plate (2) and the first 45° Faraday rotator (3), the polarization state It is still P polarization, then enters through the second polarization beam splitter prism (4) and is made up of the first 0° reflector (11), the second 0° reflector (13), the third 0° reflector and the optical elements in between In the eight-pass amplifying cavity, the P polarized light is output from the second dichroic prism (4) after eight times of amplification, and after passing through the half-wave plate (2) and the first 45° Faraday rotator (3) again, The polarization state becomes S polarization, reflected from the first polarization beam splitter prism (1), then passes through the second 45° reflector (15) and the third spatial filter (16) and is output....

Abstract

The invention discloses an off-axis eight-pass laser amplification device. The off-axis eight-pass laser amplification device consists of a polarization splitting prism, a half-wave plate, a 45-degree faraday rotator, an electro-optical switch, a spatial filter, a laser amplification head, a 0-degree reflecting mirror and a 45-degree reflecting mirror. Pulse laser to be amplified is injected into the off-axis eight-pass laser amplification device, and passes through a laser amplifier for eight times under the control of the polarization splitting prism, the half-wave plate, the 45-degree faraday rotator, the electro-optical switch and the reflecting mirrors to realize eight-pass amplification; and meanwhile, off-axis amplification is realized under the control of the spatial filter and a reflecting device. Through adoption of the off-axis eight-pass laser amplification device, the energy extraction efficiency of the laser amplifier is increased remarkably under the condition of not influencing the signal-to-noise ratio of output pulse, and the energy stability of the laser amplifier is enhanced. The off-axis eight-pass laser amplification device has important application in high-power laser devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lasers, in particular to an off-axis eight-pass laser amplifying device. Background technique [0002] High-power solid-state lasers have a wide range of applications in the fields of material processing, particle acceleration, strong X-ray generation, and laser inertial confinement fusion. Laser amplifiers, as an important part of them, have attracted much attention. Due to the characteristics of the laser material itself, when the laser passes through the laser material with gain in a single pass, most of the energy is lost in the form of heat and spontaneous radiation, and the energy extraction efficiency is very low, which seriously affects the energy efficiency of the entire device. To this end, scholars have studied how to let the laser pass through the laser material multiple times, that is, multi-pass amplification, to achieve full extraction of energy. The current multi-pass laser amplification ...
