Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lasers, in particular to a 200W class all-solid-state T-shaped double-cavity combined intracavity frequency-doubling unidirectional overlapping output quasi-continuous green light laser. Background technique

[0002] Since the first ruby ​​laser came out in the 1960s, all kinds of lasers and laser technology have developed extremely rapidly, especially the development of high-power all-solid-state solid-state lasers is particularly eye-catching, with its large output energy, high peak power, and higher than CO 2 Gas lasers are widely used in laser material processing, optical storage, laser full-color display, laser medicine, scientific research, communication, national defense, entertainment and other fields due to their short wavelength, reliable operation, and long service life. At present, multi-rod serial connection technology is the main method to improve the output power of all-solid-state lasers, ...

Embodiment

[0031] Using the laser design scheme shown in Figure 1, we have developed a quasi-continuous green laser with an output power of 202W. The laser is composed of two sub-cavities, and each sub-cavity uses the same type of semiconductor laser pumping component to side-pump Nd : YAG crystal rod, the fundamental frequency 1064nm optical output power of each semiconductor pump component is 200W, and the total fundamental frequency optical power is 400W. The size of Nd:YAG rods are Φ4.0×90mm. Using HGTR-KTP with anti-gray line characteristics as frequency doubling crystal (5×5×15mm 3 , Israel RAICLOCrystals company), adopts the type II critical phase matching method, and implements constant temperature control (temperature is 22°), which not only reduces the thermal lens effect of the frequency doubling crystal, but also compensates the frequency doubling caused by thermal effects to a certain extent Crystal phase mismatch improves frequency doubling efficiency. The Q-switching met...
