摘要: 报道了采用激光二极管(LD)端面泵浦Nd:YVO4双端键合晶体高平均功率高斜效率1 064 nm声光调Q激光器。通过对大功率泵浦情况下激光晶体热透镜效应进行分析和估算,优化了模式匹配及热稳腔结构参数,实现了稳定的高功率高斜效率准连续脉冲激光输出。在泵浦功率46.8 W、最高重复频率50 kHz下,获得最大平均输出功率17.6 W,光-光转换效率为37.6%,斜效率达70.1%,脉冲宽度51.3 ns;在最低重复频率10 kHz下,获得最大单脉冲能量0.91 mJ,峰值功率为46.2 kW,脉冲宽度为19.8 ns。Abstract: A high average output power, high slope efficiency acousto-optical Q-switched 1 064 nm laser is reported with a laser diode (LD) endpumped Nd:YVO4 double-bonded crystal scheme. With the proper estimation of thermal lensing effects under intense pumping, the mode matching and thermally stable cavity parameters are discussed and optimized, and a stable high-power highslope efficiency output is obtained. At the highest repetition rate of 50 kHz and pump power of 46.8 W, a maximum average output power of 17.6 W is achieved with optical conversion efficiency of 37.6%, slope efficiency of 70.1% and pulse width of 513 ns. At the lowest repetition rate of 10 kHz, a maximum single pulse energy of 0.91 mJ and peak power of 46.2 kW are measured with pulse width of 19.8 ns.
