Abstract

The invention discloses an optical parametric oscillation laser device based on a lanthanum gallium silicate (LGS) crystal. The optical parametric oscillation laser device sequentially comprises an exciting source, an input mirror, the LGS crystal and an output mirror, wherein the LGS crystal is cut in the phase matching direction of optical parametric oscillation, and the light-pervious surface of the LGS crystal is coated with a dielectric film highly pervious to exciting light, signal frequency light and idler frequency light; the exciting source is an all-solid-state pulse laser device; the two light-pervious surfaces of the input mirror are coated with a dielectric film highly pervious to the exciting light and highly reflective to the signal frequency light and the idler frequency light; the output mirror is coated with a dielectric film highly reflective to the signal frequency light and partially pervious to the idler frequency light. According to the optical parametric oscillation laser device, the LGS crystal is used as a nonlinear medium for outputting optical parametric oscillation laser of 1.51-3.59 microns, the output energy is high, the structure is simple, and the transmission range is continuous and adjustable.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of based on gallium lanthanum silicate (La 3 Ga 5 SiO 14 , hereinafter referred to as an optical parametric oscillator laser of LGS) crystal, belongs to the field of laser technology, and relates to a nonlinear crystal device. Background technique [0002] The optical parametric oscillator (OPO) oscillation process is an important technology for generating mid-to-far infrared lasers, because its output wavelength can be continuously tuned within a few hundred nanometers covering the near-infrared to mid-to-far infrared, and has been widely used in many fields. application. The OPO process is the nonlinear optical response of matter to high-energy lasers, so crystals with large nonlinear coefficients, moderate birefringence, and high optical damage threshold are the first choice. At present, the commonly used crystals of OPO are rubidium titanyl phosphate (KTA for short) and lithium niobate (LN for short) crys...
