چکیده

Lasing is observed near 630 nm in a sulforhodamine 640-doped silica gel pumped by frequency-doubled radiation from a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. A conversion efficiency of 20% is obtained. The laser wavelength is tunable over 40 nm.

Tunable red-light source by frequency mixing from dual band Er/Yb co-doped fiber laser.

We report an all solid state laser device producing tunable dual wavelength emission in the near IR region (1060nm, and 1550 nm) by use of an Er/Yb co-doped fiber. Generation of continuous-wave radiation around 630 nm is then demonstrated by extra-cavity sum frequency mixing in a Periodically Poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) crystal. Quasi phase matching conditions are obtained over 7 nm to generat...

Sol-gel silica laser tunable in the blue.

Doped and undoped silica slabs were fabricated through the use of the sol-gel technique. Extended UV transmission was observed for HCl-catalyzed sol-gel silica. Under transverse pumping with a XeCl laser, narrow-linewidth (<0.9-nm) laser oscillation from silica slabs doped with coumarin 460 (C460) was achieved in a grating-resonator cavity configured in the grazing-indicence geometry. Tuning of...

A two-photon pumped polyfluorene laser

A tunable two-photon pumped solid-state laser based on polyfluorene is reported. A detailed investigation of the two-photon absorption in polyfluorene for both nanosecond and femtosecond time regimes in solution, and solid-state allows the determination of the most favorable conditions for lasing. Tunable distributed feedback lasers are made by spin coating from a polyfluorene solution on corru...

A High Power, Frequency Tunable Colloidal Quantum Dot (CdSe/ZnS) Laser

Tunable lasers are essential for medical, engineering and basic science research studies. Most conventional solid-state lasers are capable of producing a few million laser shots, but limited to specific wavelengths, which are bulky and very expensive. Dye lasers are continuously tunable, but exhibit very poor chemical stability. As new tunable, efficient lasers are always in demand, one such la...

New Sol-Gel Solution with 45 Days Stability for Preparation Silica Thin Films

As we know sol-gel is one of the most important techniques for thin film preparation. In this paper, high transmission silica thin films have been prepared by dip-coating process from a new silicon-alkoxide solution. The prepared sol was stable for 45 days which is very important to characterize the coating process. The optical properties as a function of aging time, withdrawal rate, and he...
