This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The operating characteristics of Nd(3+): glass lasers energized by a solar concentrator were analyzed for the hosts YAG, silicate glass, and phosphate glass. The modeling is based on the slab zigzag laser geometry and assumes that chemical hardening methods for glass are successful in increasing glass hardness by a factor of 4. On this basis, it was found that a realistic 1-MW solar-pumped laser might be constructed from phosphate glass 4 sq m in area and 2 mm thick. If YAG were the host medium, a 1-MW solar-pumped laser need only be 0.5 sq m in area and 0.5 cm thick, which is already possible. In addition, Nd(3+) doped glass fibers were found to be excellent solar-pumped laser candidates. The small diameter of fibers eliminates thermal stress problems, and if their diameter is kept small (10 microns), they propagate a Gaussian single mode which can be expanded and transmitted long distances in space. Fiber lasers could then be used for communications in space or could be bundled and the individual beams summed or phase-matched for high-power operation. Zapata, L. E. and Williams, M. D.

Download or read book Handbook of Laser Science and Technology written by Marvin J. Weber and published by CRC-Press. This book was released on 1990-12-13 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book updates Volumes I and II of the Handbook of Laser Science and Technology. Together, these three volumes constitute a comprehensive listing of lasers and laser transitions and should be an important reference for all scientists and engineers working in the area of laser research and development. In the Handbook of Laser Science and Technology, Supplement 1: Lasers, experts summarize the discovery of new lasers and the latest advances in various types of solid state lasers, organic dye and inorganic liquid lasers, neutral, ionized and molecular gas lasers, and masers. The book also includes recent developments in X-ray lasers, free electron lasers, tunable solid state lasers, and fiber lasers. Key features of the supplement are its tables of gas and solid state lasers, arranged by wavelength so researchers can quickly find laser wavelengths for specific applications. Extensive references to the primary literature are provided throughout this supplement.

This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A solar pumped liquid laser that can be scaled up to high power (10Mw CW) for space applications was developed. Liquid lasers have the inherent advantage over gases in that they provide much higher lasant densities and thus high power densities. Liquids also have inherent advantages over solids in that they have much higher damage thresholds and are much cheaper to produce for large scale applications. Among the liquid laser media that are potential candidates for solar pumping, the POC13: Nd(3+): ZrC14 liquid was chosen for its high intrinsic efficiency as well as its relatively good stability against decomposition due to protic contamination. The development and testing of the laser liquid and the development of a large solar concentrator to pump the laser was emphasized. The procedure to manufacture the laser liquid must include diagnostic tests of the solvent purity (from protic contamination) at various stages in the production process. Schneider, R.
