LASER EMISSION IN DIODE-PUMPED Nd:YAG SINGLE-CRYSTAL WAVEGUIDES REALIZED BY DIRECT FEMTOSECOND-LASER WRITING TECHNIQUE
Buried waveguides have been realized in a 0.7 at.% Nd:YAG single crystal using the direct-writing technique with a femtosecond laser. Efficient laser emission at 1.06 and 1.32 μm is demonstrated and laser action at 0.94 μm is obtained using the pump with fiber-coupled diode laser at 807 nm, the first demonstration of such devices.
متن کاملThermally resistant waveguides fabricated in Nd:YAG ceramics by crossing femtosecond damage filaments.
We report on femtosecond laser writing of channel waveguides in Nd(3+) ion doped YAG ceramics by multiple inscriptions of damage filaments. Waveguiding between filaments was found to resist annealing temperatures as high as 1500 degrees C. Microluminescence imaging experiments have been carried out to elucidate the potential application of the obtained waveguides as integrated laser sources as ...
متن کاملGraphene-based Y-branch laser in femtosecond laser written Nd:YAG waveguides.
We report on Q-switched waveguide lasers on the graphene-based crystalline Y-branch platform. By applying direct femtosecond laser writing of Nd:YAG laser crystal, a surface waveguide splitter with Y-branch geometry has been fabricated with depressed cladding configuration. The Q-switched lasing operation at 1064 nm is achieved in transmission mode, by attaching a two-layer graphene on the reso...
متن کاملTransverse writing of three-dimensional tubular optical waveguides in glass with a slit-shaped femtosecond laser beam
We report on fabrication of tubular optical waveguides buried in ZBLAN glass based on transverse femtosecond laser direct writing. Irradiation in ZBLAN with focused femtosecond laser pulses leads to decrease of refractive index in the modified region. Tubular optical waveguides of variable mode areas are fabricated by forming the four sides of the cladding with slit-shaped femtosecond laser pul...
متن کاملFabrication of a Y-splitter Modulator Embedded in LiNbO3 with a Femtosecond Laser
We describe a technique to integrate embedded microelectrodes and optical waveguides in Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) using a femtosecond laser, and a Y-splitter modulator was demonstrated. The Y-splitter was fabricated by femtosecond laser direct writing and the embedded microelectrodes were fabricated by combining femtosecond laser ablation with selective electroless plating. The embedded microele...
