High-efficiency diode-pumped Tm:YAG ceramic laser
A high efficient Tm:YAG ceramic laser at 2007 nm pumped by a diode laser was demonstrated. The laser performances with Tm doping concentrations of 4 at.% and 6 at.% were comparatively analyzed. The continuous-wave (CW) laser powers up to 2.11 W and 1.68 W have been obtained for Tm:YAG ceramics at 6 at.% and 4 at.% doping levels, corresponding to the slope efficiencies of 43.6% and 53.8% respect...
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 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 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 The helical flash lamps used to pump early ruby lasers were superseded by the linear flash lamp and arc lamp now used to pump neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet ...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 کاملFemtosecond Cr:LiSAF and Cr:LiCAF lasers pumped by tapered diode lasers.
We report compact, low-cost and efficient Cr:Colquiriite lasers that are pumped by high brightness tapered laser diodes. The tapered laser diodes provided 1 to 1.2 W of output power around 675 nm, at an electrical-to-optical conversion efficiency of about 30%. Using a single tapered diode laser as the pump source, we have demonstrated output powers of 500 mW and 410 mW together with slope effic...
