Wavelength switching using multicavity semiconductor laser diodes
We demonstrate wavelength switching in a novel multicavity distributed Bragg reflector semiconductor laser diode. This new device, which uses an integrated saturable absorber and singlemode fiber Bragg gratings, digitally switches wavelength as a function of drive current between all possible binary combinations.
متن کامل6450 nm wavelength tissue ablation using a nanosecond laser based on difference frequency mixing and stimulated Raman scattering.
A four-stage laser system was developed, emitting at a wavelength of 6450 nm with a 3-5 ns pulse duration, < or = 2 mJ pulse energy, and 1/2 Hz pulse repetition rate. The laser system successfully ablated rat brain tissue, where both the collateral damage and the ablation rate compare favorably with that previously observed with a Mark-III Free-Electron Laser.
متن کاملDemonstration of laser pulse amplification by stimulated Brillouin scattering
The energy transfer by stimulated Brillouin backscatter from a long pump pulse (15 ps) to a short seed pulse (1 ps) has been investigated in a proof-of-principle demonstration experiment. The two pulses were both amplified in different beamlines of a Nd:glass laser system, had a central wavelength of 1054 nm and a spectral bandwidth of 2 nm, and crossed each other in an underdense plasma in a c...
متن کاملFrequency stability of a wavelength meter and applications to laser frequency stabilization.
Interferometric wavelength meters have attained frequency resolutions down to the megahertz range. In particular, Fizeau interferometers, which have no moving parts, are becoming a popular tool for laser characterization and stabilization. In this paper, we characterize such a wavelength meter using an ultrastable laser in terms of relative frequency instability σ(y)(τ) and demonstrate that it ...
متن کاملStimulated Raman and Brillouin Scattering Processes in Centrosymmetric Semiconductor Plasmas
A simple analytical treatment based on the hydrodynamical model of plasmas is developed to study both steady-state and transient stimulated Raman and Brillouin scattering processes in centrosymmetric or weakly noncentrosymmetric semiconductors. Gain constants, threshold-pump intensities, and optimum pulse durations for the onset of Raman and Brillouin instabilities are estimated. The qualitativ...
