1 kHz, 5.3 kW peak power pulse generation from a LiNbO3 acousto-optically Q-switched Er:YAP laser
In this paper, we present, for the first time, a bulk LiNbO3 (LN) acousto-optic (AO) Q-switched Er:YAP laser operating at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 1 kHz. At this frequency, the laser achieves a maximum single pulse energy of 0.34 mJ, with a corresponding pulse duration of 64.5 ns and a peak power of 5.3 kW. Additionally, we characterize the laser beam quality factors, = 2.7 and = 2.5, and its central wavelength at 2730.7 nm, all at 1 kHz. These results highlight the significant potential of LN AO Q-switched Er:YAP lasers for enhancing mid-infrared laser applications.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.
Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.
Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
