Abstract

The invention relates to an excimer broadband pumped alkali metal blue light laser, comprising a pumping source a, a pumping source b, an alkali metal steam pool, a heating furnace, a high reflection mirror and an output coupling mirror. The alkali metal laser is suitable for using alkali metals such as potassium, rubidium, and cesium as the gain medium. Through cascaded pumping, the pump source a outputs a narrow linewidth laser to excite n 2 P 3 / 2 Alkali metals in the energy level, the alkali metals in the excited state of the first electron and the inert gas form A with higher binding energy 2 Π 3 / 2 Energy level excimer, use the pump source b to output a wide linewidth laser to convert A 2 Π 3 / 2 Energy level excimer excitation to I 2 Σ + 1 / 2 Energy level, I 2 Σ + 1 / 2 The energy levels are quickly decomposed into noble gases and (n+1) 2 P 3 / 2 energy level of the alkali metal atom, the alkali metal atom consists of (n+1) 2 P 3 / 2 energy level back to n 2 S 1 / 2 Energy level, directly produce blue light laser. This method can make the alkali metal laser applied to the field of high-energy blue laser; it can be extended to violet laser or other lasers with shorter wavelength; the method is similar to the current diode-pumped alkali metal laser in the laser structure design, and is easy to implement .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of alkali metal lasers, in particular to a new method for generating blue light lasers through alkali metal vapors. Background technique [0002] Due to the particularity of its wavelength, blue light laser has a very broad application prospect in underwater optical communication, marine resource detection, ultrashort pulse, laser spectroscopy, high-density optical storage, laser biomedicine, laser refrigeration and other fields. At present, the output power of blue-ray lasers is still very limited. The relatively mature blue-ray laser technology uses diode-pumped solid-state lasers, and then obtains blue light through frequency doubling and sum-frequency methods to achieve tens of watts of blue light output. Although this technical route has the characteristics of high efficiency, small size, long life, compact structure, and good reliability, there are serious limiting factors in the development of diode-p...
