Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the commercialized femtosecond lasers are mainly mode-locked Ti:sapphire lasers, but because the absorption peak of Ti:sapphire crystals is in the visible band, it cannot be directly pumped by LD, and generally only argon ion lasers (wavelength 515nm) or Nd 3+ The green light (532nm) obtained by doping solid-state laser frequency doubling is used as the pump source, resulting in complex structure, bulky volume and high maintenance cost of the laser, which limits its development and application

Abstract

The invention discloses an all-solid-state femtosecond laser of a Kerr mode-locked ytterbium-doped lanthanum gadolinium silicate crystal, and belongs to the technical field of functional crystal material laser output. The all-solid-state femtosecond laser of the Kerr mode-locked ytterbium-doped lanthanum gadolinium silicate crystal comprises a pump, and a pump light source horizontally output by the pump is emitted to a focusing lens through an optical fiber coupler; the pump light source is focused into a focusing light source through the focusing lens, is emitted to the concave mirror II through the Yb: GLSO crystal, and then oscillates in a resonant cavity formed by the concave mirror I, the concave mirror II and the plane mirror to realize laser output; then the light is reflected to the SF6 triple prism through the concave mirror II and is used for compensating chromatic dispersion in the cavity; and finally, femtosecond pulse laser output is realized through the laser output coupling mirror.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser output of functional crystal materials, in particular to a Kerr mode-locked all-solid-state femtosecond laser doped with ytterbium-doped gadolinium-lanthanum silicate crystal. Background technique [0002] In 1981, the advent of the world's first femtosecond dye laser marked that the development of ultrafast lasers had entered the femtosecond (10-15s) stage, and thus produced femtosecond laser technology and science. Due to its unique characteristics of ultrashort pulse, high peak power and wide spectrum, femtosecond laser has been widely used in ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopy, biomedicine, optical clocks, metrology, microelectronics processing, Fields such as high-capacity optical communications have played an important role. In 1991, the world's first femtosecond Ti:Sapphire laser was born, marking the femtosecond laser entering a new era of solid-state femtosecond laser. Its characteristic...
