Optimum parameters of laser exposure were determined to provide stable transfer wherein the initial velocity of microjets lies in the range of 60 to140 m/s. It is shown that when laser radiation is focused into the bulk of glass for the whole range of used laser pulse energies of 10 to 1000 μJ only an insignificant “swelling” of the hydrogel layer occurs without transfer. It is shown that photon impulses should be taken into account when using femtosecond radiation for printing. A needle hydrophone was used to estimate shock and acoustic waves that will affect living microsystems during the laser-based bioprinting process. When a femtosecond laser pulse with an energy of 250–1000 μJ is absorbed, a shock wave is formed, the amplitude of which can reach 10<sup>4</sup> atm at a distance of ~20 μm from the optical axis. These findings may be useful for the development of laser bioprinting technology and its promising area of laser engineering of microbial systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":503,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Lebedev Physics Institute","volume":"51 10 supplement","pages":"S877 - S886"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143423440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the focal spot correctly adjusted on the semiconductor mirror, the laser operates in the harmonic mode-locking (HML) regime available over the entire pump power range up to ~355 mW with the supermode suppression level of less than 25 dB. In the HML regime, the laser can generate linear polarized pulses and provide a pulse repetition rate up to ~1145 MHz. We have shown experimentally that by injecting radiation from an external continuous laser directly into the fiber cavity we can improve the stability of laser operation in the HML regime while the level of supermode suppression is increased by 20 or 30 dB. In addition, it is shown that external injection can extend the pump power range available for the laser in the HML regime increasing the maximum pulse repetition rate up to ~2195 MHz. It is important to note that optical injection does not affect the high purity of the laser’s polarization state.
