Generating broadband tunable visible lasers via SPM-SFG in RECOB crystals
A cascading effect consist of self-phase modulation and sum-frequency generation (SPM-SFG) is found in RECa4O(BO3)3 (RE = Y, Gd) crystals, which can directly convert a 1540 nm ultrafast laser into tunable visible laser. For a YCa4O(BO3)3 (YCOB) crystal, the tunable wavelength range was measured to be 450–770 nm, and the maximum optical conversion efficiency was 10.4 %, when the output wavelength is 630 nm. For a GdCa4O(BO3)3 (GdCOB) crystal, the tunable outputs were obtained from 485 to 770 nm, with a peak conversion efficiency of 8.7 % at 622 nm. These results manifest that SPM-SFG is a very convenient, effective method for achieving tunable ultrafast lasers in visible waveband.
