Abstract

We present a LD-side-pumped Nd:YAG-based burst-mode green laser system that utilizes an electro-optical (EO) Q-switched oscillator followed by a folded power amplifier design and a second harmonic generator to achieve a compact-footprint (0.36 m²) architecture. The maximum pulse energy of 248 mJ at 1064 nm and 102 mJ at 532 nm was obtained at a pulse repetition rate of 10 kHz and burst duration of 5 ms, corresponding to a second-harmonic conversion efficiency of up to 41%. At a higher repetition rate of 50 kHz, an output of over 40 mJ per pulse at 532 nm, with a pulse width of 11.52 ns and a total burst energy of 10 J, was achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the highest reported LD-pumped burst-mode green laser in terms of pulse energy and pulse repetition rate.

高能，高重复率LD侧泵浦爆发模式绿色激光器

我们介绍了一种基于 LD 侧泵浦 Nd:YAG 的猝发模式绿光激光系统，该系统利用电光（EO）Q 开关振荡器、折叠式功率放大器设计和二次谐波发生器实现了紧凑的结构（0.36 m2）。在脉冲重复率为 10 kHz、猝发持续时间为 5 ms 时，1064 nm 波长的最大脉冲能量为 248 mJ，532 nm 波长的最大脉冲能量为 102 mJ，相应的二次谐波转换效率高达 41%。在更高的 50 kHz 重复频率下，532 nm 波段的每个脉冲输出超过 40 mJ，脉冲宽度为 11.52 ns，总猝发能量为 10 J。据我们所知，就脉冲能量和脉冲重复率而言，这是目前所报道的最高的 LD 泵浦猝发模式绿光激光器。
