چکیده

The linewidth of a KGd(WO ₄) ₂ (KGW) intracavity pumped Raman laser is analyzed experimentally for different configurations of the Raman and pump laser resonators: with narrow and broadband pump emission profiles, with and without linewidth narrowing elements in the Raman laser resonator, with and without injection seeding into the Raman cavity. The benefits of a narrow linewidth pump source in combination with linewidth narrowing elements in the Raman laser cavity for the efficient linewidth narrowing of the Raman laser emission are explained. 20 kW peak-power pulses at 1156 nm with 0.43 cm⁻¹ emission linewidth are demonstrated from an injection seeded KGW Raman laser.

Continuous-wave Raman laser pumped within a semiconductor disk laser cavity.

A KGd(WO₄)₂ Raman laser was pumped within the cavity of a cw diode-pumped InGaAs semiconductor disk laser (SDL). The Raman laser threshold was reached for 5.6 W of absorbed diode pump power, and output power up to 0.8 W at 1143 nm, with optical conversion efficiency of 7.5% with respect to the absorbed diode pump power, was demonstrated. Tuning the SDL resulted in tuning of the Raman laser outp...

Development of junction temperature estimation system for light-emitting LED using pulsed-laser Raman scattering

A new method by using a pulsed-laser Raman scattering technique was employed to estimate junction temperature of a fluorescence-resin-less blue-LED package. Temperature dependent Raman shift of E2 H mode of GaN layer in the blue-LED were obtained and were in good agreement with the experimental data published by the other researchers. This technique was applied to estimation of a junction tempe...

Narrowing of Spectral Lines beyond the Natural or Dephasing Line Width

In spectroscopy one is always faced with the problem of spectral resolution. One wishes to determine the frequency of the quantized transition with highest accuracy and one is interested in detecting fine structure or neighboring transitions. Disregarding experimental factors, the ultimate resolution is dictated by the inherent linewidth of the transitions. In optical spectroscopy we know vario...
