High-repetition-rate widely tunable LiF:F-2(-) color center lasers

摘要

high-repetition-rate tunable LiF:Fi(2)(-) color center lasers pumped by quasi-continuous-wave diode-side-pumped acousto-optically Q-switched Nd:YAG laser are demonstrated, Littrow-grating and Littman-grating tuning schemes arc studied respectively. in the Littrow-grating scheme, the tuning range was 1085 mu to 1275 nm, and the maximal average output power was 275 mW, In the Littman-grating scheme, the tuning range was 1105.5nm to 1215.5 nm, and the maximal average output power was 135 mW.
