Brillouin Fiber Laser Pumped by a DFB Laser Diode
In this paper, we present a novel Brillouin fiber-ring laser utilizing an unbalanced Mach–Zehnder interferometer (UMZI) as coupling device. The laser is pumped by a distributed-feedback laser diode and shows continuous-wave and single-frequency operation. Frequency-dependent transmission characteristics of the UMZI make it possible for the pump wave to pass through the laser-ring cavity with no...
متن کاملHighly efficient dual-wavelength mid-infrared CW Laser in diode end-pumped Er:SrF2 single crystals
The spectral properties and laser performance of Er:SrF2 single crystals were investigated and compared with Er:CaF2. Er:SrF2 crystals have larger absorption cross-sections at the pumping wavelength, larger mid-infrared stimulated emission cross-sections and much longer fluorescence lifetimes of the upper laser level (Er3+:4I11/2 level) than those of Er:CaF2 crystals. Dual-wavelength continuous...
متن کاملFiber-laser-pumped, high-energy, mid-IR, picosecond optical parametric oscillator with a high-harmonic cavity.
We demonstrate the generation of high-energy, mid-IR, picosecond pulses in a high-harmonic-cavity optical parametric oscillator (OPO) that has a relatively compact cavity with a length that is a small fraction of that required to match the pump repetition rate. The OPO, based on an MgO-doped periodically poled LiNbO3 crystal, is pumped by a fiber master-oscillator-power-amplifier system employi...
متن کاملHigh-power diode-pumped fiber laser operating at 3 μm.
A high-power diode-cladding-pumped Ho³⁺-doped fluoride glass fiber laser operating in cascade mode is demonstrated. The ⁵I₆→⁵I₇ and ⁵I₇→⁵I₈ laser transitions produced 0.77 W at a measured slope efficiency of 12.4% and 0.24 W at a measured slope efficiency of 5.2%, respectively. Using a long fiber length, which forced a large threshold for the ⁵I₇→⁵I₈ transition, a wavelength of 3.002 μm was mea...
متن کاملSingle-step sub-200 fs mid-infrared generation from an optical parametric oscillator synchronously pumped by an erbium fiber laser.
We demonstrate the single-step generation of mid-infrared femtosecond laser pulses in a AgGaSe2 optical parametric oscillator that is synchronously pumped by a 100 MHz repetition rate sub-90 fs erbium fiber laser. The tuning range of the idler beam in principle covers ∼3.5 to 17 μm, only dependent on the choice of cavity and mirror design. As an example, we experimentally demonstrate...
