چکیده
A tunable computer controlled UV laser spectrometer utilizing intracavity second harmonic generation of a cw ring dye laser is described. The spectrometer yields broadband (~100-GHz) second harmonic outputs of up to 30 mW and narrowband (~100-MHz) single-mode UV outputs of up to 10 mW continuously tunable over intervals of 3200 GHz in the 285-311-nm wavelength range.

Tunable subpicosecond dye laser amplified at 1 kHz by a cavity - dumped , Q - switched , and mode - locked Nd : YAG laser
Tunable subpicosecond pulses are generated by synchronously pumping a dye laser with the pulse-compressed and frequency-doubled output of an acousto-optically mode-locked cw Nd:YAG laser. The pulses are amplified at a repetition rate of 1 kHz, using the frequency-doubled output of a cavity-dumped, acousto-optically mode-locked, Qswitched, cw pumped Nd:YAG laser. Amplified transform-limited puls...
متن کاملComputer controlled cw laser spectrometer.
A computer controlled cw UV-visible dye laser source for spectroscopic use has been developed. Computer control facilitates both continuous single-frequency scanning and data acquisition. With 4 W of Ar-ion laser pump power, such a spectrometer can generate in excess of 1 W of cw single-frequency power in the visible and up to 1 mW in the UV by using extracavity nonlinear optical mixing. The la...

The generation of watt-level cw narrow-linewidth sources at specific deep UV wavelengths corresponding to atomic cooling transitions usually employs external cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation (SHG) of moderate-power visible lasers in birefringent materials. In this work, we investigate a novel approach to cw deep-UV generation by employing the low-loss BBO in a monolithic walkoff-compe...

The passive mode locking of a cw Coumarin 6 dye laser in a colliding-pulse ring configuration is reported. Pulses of less than 500-fsec duration have been obtained from 518 to 554 nm, with the shortest pulses obtained being of 96-fsec duration.
متن کاملSelf-suppression of axial mode hopping by intracavity second-harmonic generation.
Intracavity second-harmonic generation (SHG) in a single-frequency laser has an associated loss for adjacent nonlasing modes, from sum-frequency generation, that is greater than the loss from SHG for the lasing mode. Mode hopping is thereby suppressed, as the lasing mode dominates neighboring modes. We have investigated this behavior in a Nd:YAG laser with LBO intracavity frequency doubler, obt...
