Abstract

In recent years, the Pr ion has gained great interest due to its vast spectral resources in the visible range. High slope and output power have been the focus of laser development in Pr-doped fibers. In this study, we investigated three different lengths of single-mode Pr:ZBLAN fiber with transitions of ³P₀→³H₆ and ³F₂. The maximum output power of 204 mW and 555 mW were obtained with an optimum length of 23.5 cm and slope efficiencies as high as 65.4 % and 66.28 % at 603 nm and 635 nm, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, these are the maximum output power and slope efficiency at 603 nm and 635 nm in single-mode Pr:ZBLAN fiber pumped by blue laser. These results indicate the potential of single-clad Pr:ZBLAN fiber for visible laser operation with high output performances.

Pr:ZBLAN 光纤 603 纳米和 635 纳米高输出性能激光器

近年来，掺镨离子因其在可见光范围内巨大的光谱资源而备受关注。高斜率和输出功率一直是掺镨光纤激光器开发的重点。在这项研究中，我们研究了三种不同长度的单模 Pr:ZBLAN 光纤，其转变为 3P0→3H6 和 3F2。在最佳长度为 23.5 厘米时，最大输出功率分别为 204 mW 和 555 mW，在波长为 603 纳米和 635 纳米时，斜率效率分别高达 65.4 % 和 66.28 %。据我们所知，这是由蓝色激光泵浦的单模 Pr:ZBLAN 光纤在 603 纳米和 635 纳米波段的最大输出功率和斜率效率。这些结果表明，单包层 Pr:ZBLAN 光纤在可见光激光器工作中具有高输出性能的潜力。
