Book excerpt: Monolithic, diode-pumped Nd: YAG ring lasers can provide diffraction-limited, single-frequency, narrow-linewidth, tunable output which is adequate for use as a local oscillator in a coherent communication system. A laser was built which had a linewidth of about 2 kHz, a power of 5 milliwatts, and which was tunable over a range of 30 MHz in a few microseconds. This laser was phase-locked to a second, similar laser. This demonstrates that the powerful technique of heterodyne detection is possible with a diode-pumped laser used as the local oscillator. Laser diode pumping of monolithic Nd: YAG rings can lead to output powers of hundreds of milliwatts from a single laser. A laser was built with a single-mode output of 310 mW. Several lasers can be chained together to sum their power, while maintaining diffraction-limited, single frequency operation. This technique was demonstrated with two lasers, with a total output of 340 mW, and is expected to be practical for up to about ten lasers. Thus with lasers of 310 mW, output of up to 3 W is possible. The chaining technique, if properly engineered, results in redundancy. The technique of resonant external modulation and doubling is designed to efficiently convert the continuous wave, infrared output of our lasers into low duty-cycle pulsed green output. This technique was verified through both computer modeling and experimentation. Further work would be necessary to develop a deliverable system using this technique.

This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it s resurgent in 1990s, the field of diode pumped solid state (DPSS) lasers grew exponentially over the last two decades. With the availability of new materials, components and devices the importance of DPSS lasers in our society is increasing by the day and they are finding applications in almost every field of science and technology. However, to create an optimum solution for specific applications, it is necessary to understand the functional possibilities and the methods to control the lasing regimes of modern DPSS lasers. This book, therefore, provides the physical basis and the state of the art of building diode-pumped solid-state lasers in the light of the new developments and describes with experimental details the issues related with various modes of operation of these lasers at the fundamental as well as intracavity frequency doubled configuration. The book should help the students and researchers in the field of lasers to understand the basics, scopes and limitations of DPSS lasers and should help shed some light on the new developments and trends in this exciting field.
