The Research of Er-doped Sequioxides Transparent Ceramic Lasers
Abstract
Laser sources operating around 3-μm waveband have recently attracted considerable attention because of their emission lines coincide with numerous molecular fingerprints, relating to strong rotational-vibration absorption of molecular gases. Diode pumped Er solid-stated lasers operating in the mentioned spectral region are promising candidate sources for using in the laser military and medical science. In this thesis, energy structure and spectral properties of the Er-doped sesquioxide ceramics was first studied. And then, thermal lensing effects of the LD end-pumped Er-doped sesquioxides were systematic investigated. Specific content is as follows:
Part one has firstly introduced the energy states related to the 3-μm laser transition. And then, possible existence of the pump wavelength, laser wavelength, and the Boltzmann factors of the distribution of the populations in the energy states were calculated, respectively. At last, dynamics of the laser output was discussed in combination with the spectral experimental date.
Part two has constructed a 3-D isotropic thermal conduction model for the LD end-pumped Er-doped solid state lasers by considering the features of the laser experiment. The finite difference method was employed in solving the Possion equation with fixed boundary conditions. The thermal distribution in the laser ceramic, the thermal induced length changes of the laser gain medium, and the resulted optical path difference (OPD) was calculated respectively. Consequently, the focal length of the LD end-pumped Er solid state lasers were obtained at different pump spot, pump power, ceramic size, and temperature of the heat sink, respectively. The calculated results shows that the Er:Lu2O3 transparent ceramics is an promising candidate laser gain medium for high power laser operation in the 3-μm waveband.
