Geometrical optimization of longitudinally lasers
End pumped or longitudinally pumped solid-state lasers have proven to be very efficient sources. They differ from side pumped lasers, regardless of the nature of the pump, by the fact that the gain is concentrated in a very well defined region. Furthermore the gain exhibits a transverse profile directly related to the pump beam profile which induces new requirements on the relative sizes of the...
متن کاملDiode-Pumped Solid State Lasers
III The use ofdiode lasers instead ofHashlamps as optical pump sources for solid state lasers offers significant advantages such as higher efficiency and longer lifetime. We have demonstrated three novel lasers based on this technology. The first is a zig-zag slab laser pumped by hybrid planar microchannel-cooled diode arrays that allow high-repetition-rate operation in a pulsed mode. The secon...
متن کاملModelling End-Pumped Solid-State Lasers
The operation dynamics of end-pumped solid-state lasers are investigated by means of a spatially resolved numerical rate-equation model and a time-dependent analytical thermal model. The rate-equation model allows the optimization of parameters such as the output coupler transmission and gain medium length, with the aim of improving the laser output performance. The time-dependent analytical th...
متن کاملDiode laser--pumped solid-state lasers.
Diode laser-pumped solid-state lasers are efficient, compact, all solid-state sources of coherent optical radiation. Major advances in solid-state laser technology have historically been preceded by advances in pumping technology. The helical flash lamps used to pump early ruby lasers were superseded by the linear flash lamp and arc lamp now used to pump neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet ...
متن کاملFrom Flashlamp-Pumped Liquid Dye Lasers to Diode-Pumped Solid-State Dye Lasers
Dye-laser technology has seen very significant progress over the last 39 years since the first demonstration of this device technology. Dye lasers offer efficient emission in the visible and near-infrared bands by direct generation of laser light. The initial emphasis was on the liquid-phase technology, and is the one very successful liquid laser. More recently the research emphasis has been so...
