Monolithic, unidirectional single-mode Nd:YAG ring laser.

چکیده
We have built a nonplanar ring oscillator with the resonator contained entirely within a Nd:YAG crystal. When the oscillator was placed in a magnetic field, unidirectional oscillation was obtained with a pump-limited, single-axial-mode output of 163 mW.

Frequency stability and offset locking of a laser-diode-pumped Nd:YAG monolithic nonplanar ring oscillator.
The frequency stability of laser-diode-pumped, monolithic Nd:YAG solid-state unidirectional nonplanar ring oscillators was studied by heterodyne measurements. We obtained cw single-axial- and transverse-mode power of 25 mW at 1064 nm at a slope efficiency of 19%. Two independent oscillators were offset locked at 17 MHz with frequency fluctuations of less than +/-40 kHz for periods of 8 min.

The structure of longitudinal modes of a passively Q-switched, non-planar unidirectional ring-resonator,with Nd:YAG active medium is described in this article. Two different techniques are used to study the longitudinal mode structure of the laser resonator. At first, the fast-fourier transform technique is applied for analyzing the mode beating of the optical fields by intensity frequency str...
متن کاملMonolithic MgO:LiNbO(3) doubly resonant optical parametric oscillator pumped by a frequency-doubled diode-laser-pumped Nd:YAG laser.
We have demonstrated a monolithic MgO:LiNbO(3) doubly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) using an allsolid- state pump. The pump laser was a single-axial-mode monolithic Nd:YAG nonplanar ring oscillator whose diode-laser pump was modulated at 325 kHz to produce relaxation oscillation spikes to higher peak powers at 1.06 microm that were frequency doubled in a resonant cavity to 532 nm...
متن کاملMonolithic Nd:YAG fiber laser.
A single-crystal Nd:YAG fiber with polished and coated endfaces has been operated as a monolithic, guided-wave laser oscillator. The 47-microm-diameter, 7-mm-length fiber oscillator operated with a threshold of 3.7 mW and a slope efficiency of 10.5%. Seventy-five percent of the laser power was in the fundamental spatial mode.
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation of a continuous-wave diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser using an externally resonant cavity.
We report 13% second-harmonic conversion efficiency of a 15-mW, cw, diode-laser-pumped Nd:YAG oscillator. 2 mW of single-axial-mode 532-mm radiation was generated by externally resonant second-harmonic generation in a monolithic MgO:LiNbO(3) nonlinear crystal cavity. The measured finesse of 450 for the monolithic external cavity indicated that absorption and scatter losses in the doubler were l...
