Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mid-wave infrared laser generation, in particular to a system for generating mid-wave infrared laser output with a wavelength not less than 3.8 microns by using laser difference frequency technology. Background technique [0002] The laser wavelength in the spectral band of 3-5 microns has the characteristics of large absorption intensity and narrow spectral lines due to the existence of a large number of intrinsic absorption peaks of gas molecules, which is very suitable for the detection of trace or trace gas components. In addition, the laser in the 3-5 micron band coincides with the window band of the infrared guided missile and can be used for in-band interference, so it is an effective laser for electro-optical countermeasures. At present, there are many technical means to produce mid-wave infrared. Available solid-state laser devices include quantum cascade semiconductor lasers, optical parametric ...
