Spectral broadening in continuous-wave intracavity Raman lasers.
Spectral broadening of the fundamental field in intracavity Raman lasers is investigated. The mechanism for the spectral broadening is discussed and the effect is compared in two lasers using Raman crystals with different Raman linewidths. The impact of the spectral broadening on the effective Raman gain is analyzed, and the use of etalons to limit the fundamental spectral width is explored. It...
متن کاملControllable continuous-wave Nd:YVO₄ self-Raman lasers using intracavity adaptive optics.
A controllable self-Raman laser using an adaptive optics (AO)-based control loop featuring an intracavity deformable mirror is reported. This method has the potential to alleviate thermal lensing within the Raman and laser gain media, and enable solid-state Raman lasers to reach new power levels. A proof-of-concept experiment using a Nd:YVO4 self-Raman laser and resulting in 18% enhancement of ...
متن کاملHigh-Power Continuous-Wave Directly-Diode-Pumped Fiber Raman Lasers
We describe novel fiber Raman lasers pumped directly by spectrally combined high power multimode laser diodes at ∼975 nm and emitting at ∼1019 nm. With a commercial multimode graded-index fiber, we reached 20 W of laser output power with a record slope efficiency of 80%. With an in-house double-clad fiber, the beam quality improved to M = 1.9, albeit with lower output power and slope efficiency...

متن کاملA quasi - continuous superradiant Raman laser with < 1 intracavity photon
A Quasi-Continuous Superradiant Raman Laser with <1 Intra-cavity Photon Report Title Steady-state collective emission from ensembles of laser cooled atoms has been proposed as a method for generating sub-millihertz linewidth optical lasers, with potential for broad impacts across science and technology. We have built a model system that tests key predictions for such active oscillators using a ...
