Abstract: A dielectric-grating waveguide free-electron laser device generating coherent or laser-like radiation is provided. An electron beam propagates next to a dielectric waveguide with a built-in grating structure to generate highly confined coherent or laser-like radiation in the waveguide through the Bragg resonance, the backward-wave resonance, or the Fabry-Perot resonance provided by the grating-waveguide structure. The dielectric-grating waveguide can be made of linear optical materials or nonlinear optical materials or combination of linear and nonlinear optical materials to enable versatile functionalities, such as laser generation, laser-wavelength conversion, and laser signal processing. Owing to the build-up of the laser modes inside the dielectric waveguide, coherent or laser-like Smith-Purcell radiation is also generated above the grating via coupling and bunching of the electrons with the surface mode fields.

Abstract: Orbital debris removal (ODR) systems under the present approach may use a ground- or surface-based FEL and mirror system with sufficient power and both spatial and temporal resolution to both locate Category II OD (1 cm to 10 cm diameter) in low Earth orbit (LEO, 160 to 2000 km altitude) and remove these objects from orbit. Locating the Category II OD is performed by having the light beam from an FEL and its beam director scan a volume of space of interest and then observing the light reflected from the OD. Removing the OD may include heating the OD to a sufficiently high temperature to evaporate the OD, changing the orbit of the OD such as to lower the perigee, or both. Megawatt-class MOPA FELs for, inter alia, removing OD, are described.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a pulsed laser driver that utilizes a high-voltage switch transistor to support a high output voltage for a laser, and a low-voltage switch transistor that switches between an ON state and an OFF state to generate a pulsed current that is supplied to the laser to generate an output pulsed laser signal. The pulsed laser driver switches the low-voltage switch transistor between the ON state and the OFF state according to an input pulsed signal such that the output pulsed laser signal is modulated according to the input pulsed signal. The pulsed laser driver also utilizes a feedback control module to control the gate terminal voltage of the high-voltage switch transistor to improve the precision of the output pulsed laser signal.

Abstract: Disclosed is a terahertz laser device based on phonon vibration excitation, including a resonant cavity composed of a hollow waveguide made of a composite film and optical lenses at both ends of the waveguide, where M represents nano-metal particles. A zinc oxide mesomorphic microsphere is used herein as a source, symmetric stretching vibration of nanosheets on the zinc oxide microsphere is excited and induced by a laser and is transmitted through elastic and electric coupling among the nanosheets, and a terahertz wave with a frequency of 0.36 THz is radiated by means of phonon vibration; moreover, the zinc oxide mesomorphic microspheres and the nano-metal particles are mixed evenly to produce a strong local electric field a few nanometers nearby a surface of the metal particle by taking advantage of a surface-enhanced Raman effect of the nano-metal particles, a nanocantilever of the ZnO mesomorphic microsphere is greatly changed in polarizability with ample contact of the nano-metal particles and the ZnO mesomorphic microspheres, and thus the terahertz radiation power thereof is enhanced.

Abstract: A laser system's laser light energy control and resulting dose control is improved by creating and using a set of gain estimators, one for each of a set or range of laser light pulse repetition rates. When a new repetition rate is used, its corresponding gain estimator is retrieved, used to compute the voltage to fire the laser source, and updated. The resulting generated laser light thereby avoids the convergence delay inherent in prior laser systems and, further, can repeatedly do so with subsequent specified repetition rates.
