Continuous wave self-Raman laser of wavelength-locked LD resonance pumping

Abstract

A continuous wave self-Raman laser of wavelength-locked LD resonance pumping is disclosed. The invention relates to the technical field of solid laser structures. The continuous wave self-Raman laser comprises a wavelength-locked LD pumping source; and a collimation focusing coupling system, a laser input cavity mirror, a bonding self-Raman crystal and an output cavity mirror are arranged in the laser output direction of the pumping source LD along the same optical axis in sequence. The continuous wave self-Raman laser overcomes the problems of low absorption rate, low output stability, high temperature sensitivity and the like of the resonance pumping lasers, and further improves the performance of the continuous wave self-Raman laser, and finally obtains the continuous Raman laser output with high efficiency, high power and high stability.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solid-state laser structures, in particular to an all-solid-state continuous-wave self-Raman laser that is resonantly pumped by a wavelength-locked semiconductor laser. Background technique

[0002] Continuous wave all-solid-state Raman lasers refer to all-solid-state Raman lasers that operate in continuous operation. Since the fundamental frequency light in pulsed lasers has a higher peak power, it is easier to reach the Raman scattering threshold, so most of the previously reported all-solid-state Raman lasers work in the pulsed state. In recent years, continuous wave all-solid-state Raman lasers have attracted more and more attention due to their applications in medicine, biomedicine, optical communications, and environmental control. There are two types of CW all-solid-state Raman laser structures reported so far: split intracavity Raman lasers and self-Raman lasers. Since the CW Raman laser is very...
