    摘要: A powerful and stable color center laser is provided by additively colored NaCl:OH.sup.- crystals. The OH.sup.- impurity is the key dopant for creating color center lasing in NaCl, providing an output tunable over the 1.41 to 1.81 .mu.m region. In addition, modelocked pulses of 5 psec duration are available in a synchronously pumped arrangement, tunable from 1.47 to 1.73 .mu.m.

    摘要: A continuous wave modelocked laser is provided which generates output pul having a duration in the picosecond range at a repetition rate in the MHz to GHz ranges. The laser includes a laser cavity defined by spaced, opposed reflective member forming a reflective path therebetween; a host laser crystal disposed in the cavity; an acousto-optic modulator disposed between the host laser crystal and one reflective member for modulating the output of the host laser crystal; and a birefringent filter, disposed in the laser cavity between the host laser crystal and the one reflective member, for tuning the laser emission to any one of a plurality of wavelengths within a range between 1.86 .mu.m and 2.14 .mu.m. A pump source pumps the host laser crystal at a wavelength of substantially 785 nm. A collimating plano-convex lens is disposed so that the planar face thereof faces the laser crystal. A mechanical device adjusts the length of the reflective path by axially displacing the one reflective member in the laser cavity so as to match the cavity round trip time to the second harmonic of the drive frequency of the acoustic-optic modulator.

    摘要: A tunable solid state laser for producing a laser emission at any desired w or high laser gain transition in a predetermined range of wavelengths is disclosed. The tunable solid state laser comprises: a laser cavity defined by a first reflective element and an output coupler reflective element to form a reflective path therebetween; a laser crystal disposed in the laser cavity; means for optically exciting the laser crystal to produce a laser emission in the predetermined range of wavelengths; a tunable element disposed in the laser cavity between the laser crystal and one of the reflective elements for tuning the laser emission to any desired laser transition in the predetermined range of wavelengths; and a plurality of optical plates oriented at Brewster's angle in the reflective path in the laser cavity for suppressing oscillation of undesired wavelengths within the laser cavity, the optical plates being transparent to the laser emission over the predetermined range of wavelengths. The tunable solid state laser can further include an aperture disposed in the reflective path in the laser cavity to allow the laser to lase in the laser cavity only at the lowest order spatial transverse mode of the desired wavelength in the predetermined range of wavelengths.

    摘要: A mirrorless, distributed-feedback (DFB), ultraviolet, tunable, narrow-liidth, solid state laser for remote sensing and medical applications is disclosed. Optical pumping in the DFB laser is accomplished using a frequency quadrupled, 10 Hz., Q-switched, Nd:YAG laser operating at 266 nm. The pump beam is diffracted off a grating (2400 grooves per mm.) into two parts. The two beams are subsequently recombined at the side face of the Ce:doped crystal (8 mm.times.8 mm.times.30 mm) at an angle of about 2.theta.(about 81 degrees). The resulting spatially periodic excitation within the Ce-doped gain medium due to the interferring pump beams determines the operating wavelength of the DFB laser.
