Subnanosecond mJ eye-safe laser with an intracavity optical parametric oscillator in a shared resonator.
We theoretically verify that the threshold of an intracavity optical parametric oscillator pumped by a passively Q-switched laser is entirely controlled by the bleach of the saturable absorber not by the signal output reflectivity. We use a series of different output couplers to optimize the output performance. With a signal output reflectivity of 15%, we experimentally achieve an efficient sub...
متن کاملEye-safe near-infrared trace explosives detection and imaging.
We report the development of a non-contact no-reagents system operating in the eye-safe 1560-1800 nm wavelength range for standoff trace detection of explosives and high-speed imaging. Experimental results are provided for a number of chemicals including explosives on a variety of surfaces at sub-microgram per cm2 concentration. Chemically specific images were collected at 0.06 ms pe...
متن کاملNear infrared light absorption in the human eye media
Available literature on the spectral transmittance of the eye media in the infrared (IR) is insufficiently accurate to estimate the deposited doses, e.g. in view of light damage risks. Analysis of the data of Boettner and Wolter [Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 1, 776-783 (1962)] for cornea, anterior chamber, lens and vitreous separately, shows that they can be explained on the ...
متن کاملDetermination of blue-light-induced infrared absorption based on mode-matching efficiency in an optical parametric oscillator
Non-classical squeezed states of light at a compatible atomic wavelength have a potential application in quantum information protocols for quantum states delaying or storaging. An optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate (PPKTP) is the most effective method for generating this squeezed state. However, it is a challege for the nonlinear interaction ...
متن کاملpulse-injection-seeded nanosecond optical parametric oscillator
We measured 90% pump depletion in a singly resonant image-rotating nanosecond optical parametric oscillator that was pulse-injection seeded by a self-generated signal pulse. The oscillator was pumped by an 8 ns duration single-frequency 532 nm pulse from an injection-seeded Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and resonated an 803 nm signal. The pump and pulsed-seed beams had flat-topped spatial fluence pro...
