Abstract
In this paper, a short-pulse 2 μm optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) technology was presented. FC-770 electronic fluorinated fluid was selected as the SBS medium. A sub-nanosecond pump source at 1 μm was designed and constructed, achieving a sub-nanosecond laser output with a pulse width of approximately 800 ps. By pumping a type-II non-critical phase-matched KTiOPO4 (KTP) crystal, we achieved a parametric light laser output of 1.052 mJ at the 2.1 μm degeneracy point, under a working frequency of 100 Hz and a single-pulse pump energy of 10.11 mJ. The corresponding conversion efficiency from pump light to parametric light was 10.4 %, and the output pulse width was approximately 1.9 ns.
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.
