    摘要: The invention is an optical parametric oscillator or amplifier employing a zig-zag beam path, configured using dichroic mirrors or optical surfaces on the side-walls of a solid-state, liquid, or gaseous nonlinear medium, to control conversion efficiency, beam quality, or other aspects of the nonlinear conversion process by dumping unwanted radiation, the oscillator/amplifier for use with any nonlinear process in which it is advantageous to have one or more of interacting coherent beams be partially or fully transmitted at reflection points of the zig-zag path.

    摘要: A scope cleaning apparatus and method including a device containing a cleansing solution. An actuating mechanism is provided for passing the solution through flexible tubing coupled to a scope cleaning device. The scope cleaning device includes an elongate sleeve adapted for positioning over and in general coaxial and concentric alignment with the elongate body of the scope or as a parallel tube. The proximal end of the sleeve includes a coupler for detachably coupling to the scope adjacent the eye piece thereof, with the distal end of the sleeve having an aperture therein, with the length of the sleeve being sufficient for termination of the distal end in proximate relation to the lens of the scope. The coupler includes provision for attachment to the solution delivery tubing for enabling passage of the solution into a single fluid passage, which may be annular or parallel, defined between the scope body and the cleaner sleeve. The syringe is actuated through irrigation and aspiration cycles for passage of solution out of, and into, the annular fluid flow path, with the duration of the irrigation cycle preferably being greater than the aspiration cycle.

    摘要: A laser amplifier includes a laser active slab with a source of pump power to amplify an input laser beam, the laser active slab including a block of laser active material having opposed lateral faces defining a wedge lateral dihedral angle specified to minimize parasitic amplified spontaneous emission. The laser amplifier may include one or more external mirrors highly reflecting at the lasing wavelength positioned and oriented to provide for zig-zag passes through the gain sheet for the input laser beam to yield a multi-pass-amplified laser beam. The source of pump power may be one or more laser diode bars and microlenses producing a gain sheet in the laser active slab.

    摘要: A laser amplifier includes a laser active slab with a source of pump power to amplify an input laser beam, the laser active slab including a block of laser active material having opposed lateral faces defining a wedge lateral dihedral angle, opposed longitudinal faces, and opposed parallel transverse faces, the wedge lateral dihedral angle specified to minimize parasitic amplified spontaneous emission. The source of pump power may be one or more laser diode bars and microlenses producing a gain sheet in the laser active slab. The lateral faces may include optical coatings highly transmitting at a wavelength of the pump power and highly reflecting at a lasing wavelength to provide a folded path for the input laser beam though the gain sheet. The laser amplifier may optionally include one or more external mirrors highly reflecting at the lasing wavelength positioned and oriented to provide one or more additional zig-zag passes through the gain sheet for the input laser beam and to provide a multi-pass-amplified laser beam.
