Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the work reported herein is to achieve stable mode-locked, second harmonic power output from a Nd:YAG laser. Particular emphasis is placed on amplitude stability and on conversion efficiency. The experimental results of this program are 200 mW of 0.53 micron mode-locked power output at a PRF of 500 MHz. The amplitude fluctuations are + or - 4%. The intracavity barium sodium niobate crystal, used as both the second harmonic generator and mode-lock modulator, was driven at 250 MHz. Stability control techniques successfully demonstrated include: (1) cladding of the laser rod; (2) amplitude equalization of the output pulse train; (3) maintaining the relative frequency difference between the modulator drive and the cavity c/2L frequency within narrow limits by use of a phase-lock loop; (4) series regulation of the lamp current and the use of ballast resistors; and (5) maintaining the nonlinear crystal at the phase-match temperature by closed-loop control of the oven temperature. Thermal effects in the banana crystal arising from absorption of the fundamental wavelength radiation were found to limit the amplitude stability of the laser output. The same effects distort the 0.53 micron far-field beam profile and reduce the conversion efficiency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigations were conducted in the areas of second harmonic generation and mode locking with CW neodymium:YAG Lasers. Demonstration of consistent and reproducible 100% conversion of the available CW power at 1.06 microns into 0.53 micron power was accomplished at a level of 2.1 watts in the TEM(oo) mode. A completely electronic closed loop automatically stabilized mode-locking system was developed, with capability of tracking plus or minus 1.5% variations in cavity length. Experimental and theoretical investigations of combined mode locking and intracavity second harmonic generation using a common Ba2NaNb5O15 crystal showed that there was a strong interaction between the processes, the nonlinear harmonic generation having a serious effect on mode-locking effectiveness. Thermal effects due to absorption in the nonlinear crystal were shown to have a significant effect on second harmonic generation. Correlation between theory and experiment was obtained. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is hardly any book that aims at solving problems typically encountered in the laser field, and this book intends to fill the void. Following some initial exercises related to general aspects in laser physics (Chapt. 1), the subsequent problems are organized along the following topics: (i) Interaction of radiation with matter either made of atoms or ions, weakly interacting with surrounding species, or made of more complicated elements such as molecules or semiconductors (Chapters 2 and 3). (ii) Wave propagation in optical media and optical resonators (Chapters 4 and 5). (iii) Optical and electrical pumping processes and systems (Chapter 6): (iv) Continuous wave and transient laser behaviors (Chapters 7 and 8). (v) Solid-state, dye, semiconductor, gas and X-ray lasers (Chapters 9 and 10). (vi) Proper ties of the output beam and beam transformation by amplification, frequency conversion and pulse compression or expansion (Chapters 11 and 12). Problems are proposed here and solved following the contents of Orazio Svelto's Principles of Lasers (fourth edition; Plenum Press, New York, 1998). Whenever needed, equations and figures of the book mentioned above are currently used with an appropriate reference [e. g. , Eq. (1. Ll) of the book is referred to as Eq. (Ll. 1) of PL]. One can observe, however, that the types of problems proposed and discussed are of general validity and many of these problems have actually been suggested by our own long-time experience in performing theoretical and experimental researches in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Nonlinear Optics discusses the different activities in the field of nonlinear optics. The book is comprised of 10 chapters. Chapter 1 presents a description of the field of nonlinear guided-wave optics. Chapter 2 surveys a new branch of nonlinear optics under the heading optical solitons. Chapter 3 reviews recent progress in the field of optical phase conjugation. Chapter 4 discusses ultrafast nonlinear optics, a field that is growing rapidly with the ability of generating and controlling femtosecond optical pulses. Chapter 5 examines a branch of nonlinear optics that may be termed nonlinear quantum optics. Chapter 6 reviews the new field of photorefractive adaptive neural networks. Chapter 7 presents a discussion of recent successes in the development of nonlinear optical media based on organic materials. Chapter 8 reviews the field of nonlinear optics in quantum confined structures. Chapter 9 reviews the field of nonlinear laser spectroscopy, with emphasis on advances made during the 1980s. Finally, Chapter 10 reviews the field of nonlinear optical dynamics by considering nonlinear optical systems that exhibit temporal, spatial, or spatio-temporal instabilities. This book is a valuable source for physicists and other scientists interested in optical systems and neural networks.
