Problems solved by technology

[0004] In order to obtain more practical laser output in the visible and ultraviolet bands, it is necessary to frequency-multiply or mix-modulate the infrared fundamental wave laser of the microchip laser, and to add nonlinear optical crystals inside or outside the laser cavity, and sometimes It is necessary to add Q-switched components or chips, which also brings difficulties to the manufacture of devices and their stable and reliable operation

Abstract

In one end surface perpendicular to the frequency doubling or frequency mixing phase matching direction of non-linear optical crystal, laser crystal microchip or Q-modulating chip and laser crystal microchip are produced through epitaxial growth, and this realizes integral solid microchip laser with frequency modulation function pumped by semiconductor laser or other proper optical source. The laser can convert the light of semiconductor laser or other proper optical source into visible or UV laser beam.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to crystal material and optoelectronic technology. Background technique [0002] A microchip laser is a small laser with a laser crystal thickness of less than 1 mm and a dielectric film that meets the laser operating conditions directly on both sides. The semiconductor laser can be used as the pump source for end pumping, and the semiconductor laser with poor beam quality and monochromaticity can be converted into a solid-state laser output with high beam quality and good monochromaticity. On this basis, Q-switching elements and nonlinear optical crystals can be added to perform Q-switching, frequency doubling or frequency mixing on the solid-state fundamental wave laser to obtain laser output in the visible and ultraviolet bands. This type of device has the advantages of low pumping threshold, high conversion efficiency, stability and reliability, compact device, and convenient use. It has broad application prospects in the fie...
