Theoretical Evaluation of a Pulsed Mid-Infrared Ho3+:BaY2F8 Laser
In this study, we construct a theoretical model to analyze the output characteristics of a pulsed Ho3+:BaY2f8 (Ho3+:BYF) laser by taking both energy transfer up-conversion (ETU) and cross relaxation (CR) processes into account. The influences of the pump energy, pulse width, reflectance of an output coupler (OC), crystal length, and Ho3+ doping concentration on the physical performances are investigated in detail for an end-pumped structure. The calculation results reveal that the proper length of a Ho3+:BaY2f8crystal is from 5 to 10 mm for the Ho3+ doping concentration of 10–40 at.%. We also deduce that a high output can be obtained when the Ho3+ doping concentration is selected as 30 at.%. It has been demonstrated that the relaxation oscillation of a Ho:BYF laser can be observed for a pulsed pump source. We can see that the threshold peak power of a pump light source decreases with the increase of the pulse width. The conclusions might be useful for the realization of a pulsed mid-infrared Ho3+: BYF laser.
