Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of solid-state laser technology, specifically relating to a 1319nm laser based on a torsional cavity and slat configuration. Background Technology

[0002] In high-precision spectroscopic applications such as ozone lidar detection and sodium guide star atmospheric detection, single-mode lasers in the 1319 nm band have attracted widespread attention. However, existing technologies still face challenges such as poor single-mode stability, low pulse energy, and complex structures. Although traditional single-mode techniques, such as non-planar ring cavities, can output single-frequency lasers, their output power is typically limited to the hundreds of milliwatts. Other methods capable of outputting single-mode lasers, such as birefringent filter methods, Fabry-Perot (FP) etalon methods, and short-range absorption methods, generally limit their output power to the watt level. Furthermore, the stimulated emission cross-section in the 1319 nm band is relatively small, only one-third that of the conventional wavelength of 1064 nm. Therefore, how to simultaneously achieve a compact 1319 nm single-frequency laser with good single-frequency characteristics, high energy, and excellent beam quality has become a crucial problem that urgently needs to be solved in the field of lidar detection. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0004] A 1319nm laser based on a torsional cavity and slat configuration includes: an oscillator stage, a preamplifier, a first-stage main amplifier, and a second-stage main amplifier arranged sequentially. The oscillator stage generates a narrow-linewidth pulsed laser in the μJ range and outputs it to the preamplifier. The preamplifier amplifies the incident narrow-linewidth pulsed laser to the mJ range and outputs it to the first-stage main amplifier. The first-stage main amplifier amplifies the incident narrow-linewidth pulsed laser to the tens of mJ range and outputs it to the second-stage main amplifier. The second-stage main amplifier amplifies the incident narrow-linewidth pulsed laser to the hundreds of mJ range.

[0005] The oscillation stage is based on a torsional cavity configuration and outputs a narrow linewidth pulsed laser in the μJ range through active electro-optic Q-switching of the oscillator;

[0006] The preamplifier is based on a slab laser crystal and uses a single-end-face pumping method to amplify the oscillating μJ-level narrow-linewidth pulsed laser to the mJ level.

[0007] The first-stage main amplifier is based on a slab laser crystal and uses a dual-end-face pumping method to amplify the mJ-level narrow-linewidth pulsed laser incident by the preamplifier to the tens of mJ level.

[0008] The second-stage main amplifier is based on a slab laser crystal and uses a dual-end-face pumping method to amplify the narrow-linewidth pulsed laser of tens of mJ incident on the first-stage main amplifier to hundreds of mJ.

[0009] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] This invention provides a 1319nm laser based on a torsional cavity and slat configuration. The system outputs a single pulse energy of about 200mJ and a repetition frequency of about 100Hz. It is a narrow-linewidth pulse laser with a compact structure and excellent beam quality, which can be widely used in the field of lidar detection.

[0011] This invention eliminates the spatial hole-burning effect of the oscillation stage by introducing torsional cavity technology, ensuring that the field intensity of the 1319nm Nd:YAG laser is uniformly distributed along the optical axis in the resonant cavity, suppressing multi-longitudinal mode oscillation from a physical mechanism, and realizing high-purity single-longitudinal mode output.

[0012] This invention employs a rational coating design: a 1319nm total reflection mirror 15 is coated with a 1319nm total reflection film, along with high-transmittance films at 1064nm and 1338nm. Similarly, the 1319nm partially reflective and partially transmissive output mirror 17 is coated with a 1319nm partially reflective and partially transmissive film, also with high-transmittance films at 1064nm and 1338nm. This effectively suppresses oscillations of competing wavelengths like 1064nm and 1338nm in the oscillation stage, ensuring the laser outputs only a single-frequency 1319nm pulsed laser. Furthermore, the rational coating design in the amplification stage also effectively suppresses spontaneous emission amplification in the 1064nm band during amplification, significantly improving energy extraction efficiency.

[0013] The slab laser amplification module used in this invention has the advantage of a one-dimensional thermal lens and is equipped with liquid cooling technology for efficient and uniform heat dissipation, avoiding the beam quality degradation caused by thermal distortion in traditional rod-shaped laser crystals. More importantly, the laser amplifiers are all designed based on the principle of spherical aberration self-compensation. This invention adopts a multi-pass amplification beam structure to actively compensate for the thermal aberrations generated by the slab laser crystal during amplification, thereby effectively ensuring high beam quality while improving output energy.

[0014] By introducing a reasonable arrangement and configuration of optical components and combining it with the above-mentioned optical design methods, this invention can overcome the problem of incompatibility between high power and single-frequency characteristics, while ensuring that the laser structure is compact, highly stable, and easy to apply in engineering, especially suitable for fields such as lidar detection.

[0048] This invention coats the surface of a 1319nm total reflection mirror 15 with a 1319nm total reflection film and high transmittance films of 1064nm and 1338nm. It also coats the surface of a 1319nm partially reflective and partially transmittance output mirror 17 with a 1319nm partially reflective and partially transmittance film and high transmittance films of 1064nm and 1338nm. This achieves efficient suppression of oscillations at competing wavelengths such as 1064nm and 1338nm in the oscillation stage, ensuring that the laser outputs only a single-frequency pulse laser at 1319nm. Furthermore, through reasonable coating design in the amplification stage, such as coating the surfaces of the first slab laser amplification module 20, the fourth amplifier cavity mirror 24, the second slab laser amplification module 27, the fifth amplifier cavity mirror 28, the sixth amplifier cavity mirror 31, the third slab laser amplification module 47, the ninth amplifier cavity mirror 42, and the tenth amplifier cavity mirror 45 with a 1064nm high transmittance film (coating can also be applied to other devices in the amplification stage), the spontaneous emission amplification of the 1064nm band generated during the amplification process is suppressed, which significantly improves the energy extraction efficiency during the amplification process.

[0049] The slab laser amplification module used in this invention has the advantage of a one-dimensional thermal lens and is equipped with liquid cooling technology for efficient and uniform heat dissipation, avoiding the beam quality degradation caused by thermal distortion in traditional rod-shaped laser crystals. More importantly, the laser amplifiers are all designed based on the principle of spherical aberration self-compensation.
