Pr:YAlO_3 microchip laser

Abstract: A cw Pr:YAlO(3) microchip-laser operation in the near-IR spectral region is reported. A microchip resonator was formed by dielectric mirrors directly deposited on the Pr:YAlO(3) crystal surfaces. For active medium pumping, a GaN laser diode providing up to 1W of output power at approximately 448 nm was used. 139mW of laser radiation at 747nm wavelength has been extracted from the microchip-laser system. Slope efficiency related to the incident pumping power was approximately 25%.

“…Peak wavelength at 605.15nm [21]. Therefore, it was necessary to reshape the diode laser beam before focusing it onto the laser crystal and, by using the same pump system as above, the pump spot radii in the x and y directions inside the crystal were found equal to about 46 and 30 µm, respectively.…”

“…As mentioned above, Pr:YAP active medium exhibits positive value of the temperature coefficient dn/dT enabling to design a microchip laser system, as opposed to Pr:YLF crystals. So, on the basis of our previous GaNdiode pumped Pr:YAP crystal investigation [28,29,32], the Pr:YAP microchip laser operating at 747 nm ( 3 P 0 → 3 F 4 laser transitions) has been designed and constructed. The microchip pump side (pump mirror) was highly transmitted for the incident diode radiation and highly reflective for the generated radiation.…”

“…Subsequently, electro-optically Q-switched Pr:YAP laser action at 747 nm has been realized [11], as well as nearinfrared-to-blue conversion (747 nm → 373.5 nm) using the nonlinear BBO crystal [12,13]. Recently, the first microchip laser based on Pr-gain medium designed for 747 nm emission has been reported [14].…”
