受激布里渊散射相位共轭是实现固体激光器功率扩展的一种很有前途的方法。在总结了功率定标问题和相位共轭概念之后,对相位共轭在固体激光器中的应用进行了综述。作者描述了使用已演示的补偿静态和热致像差和去极化的技术的功率缩放,以及通过多增益介质的相干耦合进行的能量缩放。讨论了其在二极管泵浦激光器中的应用,为半导体激光器本身的功率调节提供了一种新的途径。指出了在越来越高的能量下或使用短脉冲和/或宽带激光器时的共轭保真度的未来研究方向。>
Phase conjugation by stimulated Brillouin scattering represents a fundamentally promising approach for achieving power scaling of solid-state lasers. Following a summary of the power scaling problem and an overview of phase conjugation concepts, a review is presented of the application of phase conjugation to solid-state lasers. The author describes power scaling using demonstrated techniques for compensating static and thermally induced aberrations and depolarizations, as well as energy scaling by coherent coupling of multiple-gain media. Applications to diode-pumped lasers are discussed, as is a novel approach for power scaling of diode lasers themselves. Future research directions are indicated regarding conjugation fidelity at increasingly higher energies or with short-pulse and/or broadband lasers. >
