This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High power diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) lasers are a rapidly growing technology that is attractive for various applications in scientific and industrial fields. DPSS lasers are highly efficient, reliable and durable with superior beam quality when compared to flash-lamp pumped solid state lasers. Double-tungstate crystal of neodymium-doped potassium gadolinium tungstate (Nd:KGW) is one of the most effective active media used in DPSS lasers for generation of continuous wave radiation and ultrashort (i.e. picosecond, 10-12 s) pulses. Unfortunately, the thermal conductivity of KGW host crystals is relatively low (~3 Wm-1K-1). This low thermal conductivity and large quantum defect while pumping with ~808 nm lead to significant thermo-optical distortions. One way to minimize thermo-optical distortions is to reduce the quantum defect. This can be done by pumping at longer wavelengths as compared to conventional 808 nm. In this work we demonstrate what we believe is the first continuous wave Nd:KGW laser with hot band diode pumping at ~910 nm. This pumping wavelength reduced the quantum defect by >46% as compared to the conventional ~808 nm pumping and resulted in significantly lower thermal lensing. The laser produced 2.9 W of average output power at 1067 nm in a diffraction limited beam for an absorbed pump power of 8.3 W. The slope efficiency and optical-to-optical efficiency were found to be 43% and 35%, respectively. Significant reduction of quantum defect offered by this pumping wavelength and availability of suitable high power laser diodes opens an attractive way to further power and efficiency scaling of the Nd:KGW lasers.

Download or read book Highly Efficient Diode-pumped Lasers Based on In-band Pumping of Nd:YVO4 Crystal written by Tanant Waritanant and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work proposed to study Neodymium-doped laser crystals as an alternative for ultrashort pulse generation with medium output power level and high efficiency. The first section of this thesis focused on the thermal effect which is the main limitation in power scaling. The results showed that the thermal lensing effect is significantly reduced with in-band pumping at 914 nm. Aside from thermal lens effect investigation, discrete wavelength tuning and dual-wavelength operations were demonstrated with intracavity birefringent plates. Mode locking operations with SESAM as saturable absorber was demonstrated under 914 nm pump wavelength for the first time with the highest efficiency to date. The output in mode-locked regime was stable and self-starting with 16 ps pulse duration which can be extended to adjacent emission lines at 1073 nm and 1085 nm. Finally, two important candidates for low quantum defect pumping, Nd:CALYO and Nd:SYSO, were identified and tested for the first time.

Download or read book Efficient CW Nd:YLF Laser In-band Diode-pumped at 908 Nm and Its Thermal Lensing written by Zohreh Sedaghati and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diode-pumped solid-state lasers are highly recommended for a variety of industrial and scientific applications as they can offer high efficiency and excellent beam quality. However, power scaling of these lasers is a challenging task. The main limitation in power scaling of famous neodymium doped lasers such as Nd:YVO4 is the thermal lensing effect. Thermal lensing degrades the output beam quality and in extreme cases can result in crystal fracture. One potential solution to this problem is to reduce the induced heat load inside the gain media by decreasing the quantum defect. This was demonstrated successfully for the Nd:YVO4 laser by pumping the laser at a long wavelength of 914 nm instead of the traditional pumping at 808 nm wavelength. Among the Nd-doped crystals operating in the near infrared range, the crystal of yttrium lithium fluoride (Nd:YLF) is another interesting gain medium as it has the benefits of natural birefringence (can generate naturally polarized laser beam), negative dn/dT (reduces thermal effects) and long upper level lifetime (in favor of Q-switched operation). In this work we used a long wavelength pumping approach and for the first time examined the performance of a continuous-wave Nd:YLF laser at 1047 nm under 908 nm diode pumping. This pumping wavelength reduced the quantum defect by 50% as compared to the conventional 808 nm pumping. The laser produced an output power of 850 mW at 1047 nm with excellent beam quality and 625 mW at 1053 nm. The slope efficiency was ~73.9% and 46% for 1047 and 1053 nm, respectively. Therefore, a considerable power scaling is possible for Nd:YLF crystals owing to the strongly reduced quantum defect and, hence, thermal lensing.

Download or read book High Power Operation of the In-band Diode-pumped Nd:GdVO4 Lasers written by Mohammad Nadimi and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main obstacle in power scaling of the well-known Nd-doped lasers such as Nd:YVO4 is the thermal lensing effect. One of the proposed solutions to effectively alleviate this problem was based on the reduction of heating within the laser crystal. This was extensively investigated with the Nd:YVO4 crystal by pumping the laser at 914 nm instead of the standard pumping at 808 nm wavelength. In context of high power applications, the crystal of Nd:GdVO4 is an interesting alternative to the Nd:YVO4 as it offers the benefits of good spectral features (similar to Nd:YVO4) and much higher thermal conductivity. However, there is only one proof-of-principle work on continuous-wave (CW) Nd:GdVO4 laser using this pumping approach in which an output power of 3.35 W was reported. The full power scaling potential of the Nd:GdVO4 laser crystal to produce high output power has not been demonstrated to date. In this PhD thesis, I addressed this issue and investigated the high power operation of Nd:GdVO4 lasers under a new pumping wavelength of 912 nm. First, the thermal lensing behaviour of a 1063 nm Nd:GdVO4 was studied, both experimentally and by finite element analysis (FEA) method. The thermal lensing strength in Nd:GdVO4 laser under 912 nm pumping was significantly reduced when compared to the Nd:GdVO4 laser with 808 nm pumping or even Nd:YVO4 laser with 914 nm pumping. The next step of this research was focused on high power operation of Nd:GdVO4 lasers where we achieved 19.8 W of output power at 1063 nm. As a side work in the CW regime of operation, the possibility of discrete wavelength tuning and dual-wavelength operation of the Nd:GdVO4 laser were examined by using an intracavity birefringent filter. Discrete wavelength operation at four different wavelengths was demonstrated. Furthermore, for the first time we were able to demonstrate a dual-wavelength operation of the Nd:GdVO4 laser as a 1063 and 1071 nm wavelength pair. The last aspect of this PhD thesis was concentrated on generation of picosecond pulses. We were able to report on the first semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) mode-locked (ML) Nd:GdVO4 laser with 912 nm pumping. The laser generated 10.14 W of average output power with the pulse width of 16 ps at the repetition rate of 85.2 MHz. To the best of our knowledge this is the highest average output power ever obtained from any of the SESAM mode-locked Nd-doped solid-state lasers that were pumped around 912 nm.

Download or read book Diode Lasers in Neurosurgery written by François-Xavier Roux and published by John Libbey Eurotext. This book was released on 1999 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of the authors' many years of experience in using neurosurgical lasers. They began using laser diodes in their speciality at the start of the 1990s, making them pioneers in the field. The first part of the book deals with the general physical bases and comparative bio-tissue effects of the various kinds of surgical laser, safety measures required and legislation concerning powerful lasers. The second part focuses on laser diodes alone. The authors describe in detail how they use them to operate on intracranial and intraspinal tumours, in intraventricular endoscopy, and in surgery involving epilepsy. Details are given of: technical data; the choice of parameters depending on how the lasers are used (contact and non-contact, and the type of lesion being operated on) as well as their indications in neurosurgery. The authors emphasise the practical recommendations that make this book a valuable companion for current and potential users working in neurosurgery and other surgical applications. They also mention the new and future uses of laser diodes which are currently being developed and which show that this equipment really does represent a new generation of lasers. About 100 colour illustrations and tables are used to explain and underscore the authors' points.
