Abstract

The invention provides a conical rod laser amplifier, and belongs to the field of solid lasers. The amplifier comprises a pumping source, and a seed source, a diverging lens, a conical rod gain medium and a collimating lens which are coaxially arranged in sequence, the incident end face and the emergent end face of the conical rod gain medium are spherical crowns of a spherical cone which are coaxial, and the sphere centers of the spherical crowns are located at the focal point of the diverging lens. The invention also provides a conical rod gain medium group which is composed of multiple stages of conical rod gain mediums and has a spherical conical contour, and an improved conical rod laser amplifier of which the conical rod gain mediums have the functions of diverging lenses, so that the seed light energy can extract the stored energy of the reversal population in the conical rod gain mediums at the maximum efficiency, and enable the conical rod laser amplifier to work in a nearly saturated state; and the conical rod laser amplifier provided by the invention is small in size and simple in structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of solid lasers, in particular to a laser amplifier. Background technique [0002] Solid-state laser amplifiers are an effective way to obtain high-power, high-beam-quality laser output. At present, the shape of the laser gain medium used in solid-state lasers is slab or rod. Among them, the rod-shaped gain medium has the advantages of low price, simple structure, and high-power laser output. It is widely used in industry, scientific research and other fields due to its advantages. [0003] In order to extract more energy from the rod-shaped gain medium, the amplifier often uses a double-pass or multi-pass structure, resulting in a laser amplifier with complex structure, large volume, and difficult debugging. Improving the light-to-light conversion efficiency can increase the gain obtained from the gain medium in a single pass, which can avoid the use of double-pass or multi-pass structures to a certain extent. For s...
