High Power Femtosecond Fiber Chirped Pulse Amplification System for High Speed Micromachining
The need for improved precision in a wide variety of micromachining applications has driven scientific interest in ultrashort pulse lasers. Despite numerous demonstrations of reduced heat effect and improved processing quality, the utility of such lasers has been limited by the heavy demands placed upon laser performance. In addition to high contrast laser pulses with minimal pulse-to-pulse flu...
متن کاملFiber optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification in the femtosecond regime.
We study parametric amplification in optical fibers for chirped-pulse femtosecond laser systems. Compared to conventional OPCPA operating in bulk crystals, the fiber geometry offers a greater interaction length and spatial confinement, an increased flexibility in the choice of wavelengths for signal and pump beams, and the robustness of fiber setups. As opposed to rare-earth doped fibers, param...
متن کاملChirped-pulse oscillators for the generation of high-energy femtosecond laser pulses
This paper reports on a novel approach for producing high energy femtosecond pulses without external amplification. The so-called chirped-pulse oscillator ~CPO! concept is based on an extended-cavity oscillator, operating at small net positive intracavity group delay dispersion ~GDD!, over a broad spectral range by the use of chirped multilayer mirrors. The resultant chirped picosecond pulses a...
متن کاملHigh pulse energy 2 µm femtosecond fiber laser.
In the paper, a 2 µm high energy fs fiber laser and amplification system is presented based on Tm doped fibers. The seed laser was designed to generate pulse train at 2024 nm at a repetition rate of 2.5 MHz. An AOM was used as a pulse picker to further lower the repetition rate down to 100 kHz. Two-stage fiber pre-amplifiers and a high energy large mode area (LMA) fiber amplifier were used to b...
متن کاملHigh-conversion-efficiency optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification system using spatiotemporally shaped pump pulses.
High-conversion-efficiency, high-stability optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification is demonstrated with a spatiotemporally shaped pump laser system. Broadband 5-mJ pulses are produced at a 5-Hz repetition rate with a pump-to-signal conversion efficiency of 29% and energy stability better than 2% rms. To our knowledge this is the highest conversion efficiency and stability achieved in an ...
