Embodiment 1
[0032] This embodiment discloses a self-compensation method for wavefront distortion of a gain module of a liquid / air-cooled sheet laser.
[0033] Direct liquid / air-cooled thin-film lasers usually immerse the thin solid gain medium directly in the cooling medium. The matrix materials of commonly used sheet solid gain media mainly include the following categories: 1. Glass; 2. Oxide, such as sapphire, garnet, alumina and sulfur oxide; 3. Phosphate and silicate; 4. Tungstic acid Salt, molybdate, vanadate and beryllium; 5. Fluoride; 6. Ceramic materials. Among these materials, some materials have a positive thermo-optic coefficient, such as yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG); some materials have a negative thermo-optic coefficient, such as yttrium lithium fluoride (YLF). The cooling media commonly used in direct liquid-cooled thin-film lasers mainly include deionized water, heavy water, carbon tetrachloride, tetrachloroethylene, siloxane, aromatic compounds, halogenated hydrocarbons,...
Embodiment 2
[0039] See attached figure 1 , this embodiment discloses a gain module of a liquid / air-cooled sheet laser, which includes a cooling medium 8 and a gain medium 7, the gain medium is formed with a flow channel 6, the cooling medium 8 directly flows into the flow channel 6, and after flowing through the flow channel 6, the gain medium 7 is cooled, and the cooling medium 8 is a liquid cooling medium and / or a gas cooling medium; the thermo-optic coefficient of the cooling medium 8 is opposite in polarity to that of the gain medium 7.
[0040] In front and / or behind the gain medium 7, a flow field homogenization device 3 is arranged to homogenize the cooling flow field entering the gain module. Further, at the inlet of the cooling medium, a cooling flow field rectification device 2 is also provided to rectify the cooling flow field and improve the uniformity of the flow field.
Embodiment 3
[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, this embodiment discloses a gain module of a liquid / air-cooled sheet laser, which includes a cooling flow field rectification device 2, a flow field homogenization device 3, a gain module outer frame 4, and a gain medium pre-extension section 5, The laser gain medium 7, and the gain medium is equipped with an extension section 9. The gain medium is formed with flow channels 6 . The cooling medium 8 directly enters the gain module through the inlet 1 of the gain module outer frame 4, passes through the flow field rectifying device 2 and the flow field homogenizing device 3 for homogenization, flows into the flow channel 6, flows out from the cooling medium outlet 10, and flows through the flow In the process of track 6, the gain medium 7 is cooled, and the cooling medium 8 is a liquid cooling medium and / or a gas cooling medium; the thermo-optic coefficients of the gain medium 7 and the cooling medium 8 are opposite in polarity. The flow field...
