采用Cr ~(4+):Y_3Al_5O_(12)陶瓷作为可饱和吸收体,实现了激光二极管泵浦的近衍射极限光束质量(M ~ 2 <1.05)、高峰功率、亚纳秒级Yb:Y_3Al_5O_(12)陶瓷被动调Q微型激光器。当Cr ~(4+):Y_3Al_5O_(12)陶瓷的初始透过率为80%时,斜率效率高达36%。在重复频率为5 kHz时,脉冲宽度为335 ps,峰值功率超过150 kW。利用Cr ~(4+):YAG薄板和玻璃薄板作为输出耦合器的标准具效应,激光器实现了单纵模振荡和宽间隔多模振荡。
Laser-diode pumped nearly diffraction-limited beam quality (M2<1.05), high peak power, subnanosecond passively Q-switched Yb:Y3Al5O12 ceramic miniature laser with Cr4+:Y3Al5O12 ceramic as saturable absorber has been achieved. The slope efficiency is as high as 36% for 80% initial transmission of Cr4+:Y3Al5O12 ceramic. The pulse width of 335ps and peak power of over 150kW at repetition rate of 5kHz were obtained. Laser oscillates at single-longitudinal-mode oscillation and wide-separated multilongitudinal-mode oscillation due to the combined etalon effect of the Cr4+:YAG thin plate and thin glass plate as output coupler.
