Crystal coating is an important process in laser crystal applications. According to the crystal characteristics of neodymium-doped yttrium vanadate (Nd:YVO4), its intrinsic parameters, and optical film design theory, Ta2O5 and SiO2 were selected separately as high and low refractive index materials. The optical properties and surface roughness of the films were characterized by OptiLayer and Zygo interferometers, and the effects of ion source bias on refractive index and surface roughness were investigated so that the optimal ion source parameters were determined. Optical monitoring and quartz crystal control were combined to accurately control the thickness of each film layer and to reduce the monitoring error of film thickness. The prepared crystal device was successfully applied to the 1176 nm laser output system.

“…With regard to stimulated Raman scattering, an acousto-optic Q-switched pulse may prove more favorable against continuous waves, since Q-switched pulsed leads to a high peak power and efficient Raman conversion. Vanadate crystal has been used for stimulated Raman scattering owing to its rich Raman shifts [23,24]. In this paper, we report on an acousto-optic Q-switched self-Raman vortex laser operated based on a 20 mm long Nd: GdVO 4 crystal, which simultaneously achieved optical vortex generation and orbital angular momentum transfer from the fundamental field to the Stokes field.…”

We report, for the first time, the generation of a 1173 nm acousto-optic Q-switched self-Raman vortex laser with an axicon-based annular pump system. A 20 mm long Nd:GdVO4 crystal was used as the self-Raman crystal. Both the fundamental field and the first-Stokes field were investigated using the respective output couplers. In comparison with both vortex fields, a noticeable beam cleaning-up effect and pulse compression were observed from the 1063 nm fundamental field to the 1173 nm first-Stokes field. A Stokes field carrying a unitary topological charge was achieved. Finally, the average output power of the first-Stokes vortex emission reached 454 mW under an incident pump power of 19.5 W, corresponding to a pulse width of 45.7 ns. It was beneficial to apply a high peak power from the Q-switched laser and self-Raman conversion to expand the applications of the vortex laser beam.
