Simultaneous dual-wavelength lasers at 1064 and 1342 nm in femtosecond-laser-written Nd:YVO_4 channel waveguides

Abstract: Dual-wavelength waveguide lasing at 1064 and 1342 nm corresponding to the 4 F 3=2 → 4 I 11=2 and 4 F 3=2 → 4 I 13=2 Nd transitions has been demonstrated in a femtosecond-laser-inscribed Nd:YVO 4 channel waveguide. Under 808 nm optical pumping, the obtained laser thresholds at 1064 and 1342 nm were 180 and 210 mW, respectively. The laser slope efficiencies at 1064 and 1342 nm were found to be 15.6% and 1.7%, respectively.

“…The performance of the waveguides fabricated by ultrafast laser inscription depends on the ultrafast laser pulse (wavelength, pulse energy, pulse duration, repetition rate, and polarization) and on processing conditions (scan speed, focal depth, and irradiation geometry), as well as on the material response (substrate material properties) [3]. This technique has been successfully applied to fabricating channel waveguide devices in a wide variety of transparent materials, including glasses, crystals, ceramics, and polymers [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…So far, different techniques have been developed to produce optical waveguides, such as thermal ion in diffusion [1], ion implantation/irradiation [2], ion exchange [3] and femtosecond (fs) laser micromachining [4]. As a unique technique which can provide high spatial resolution in three-dimensional (3D) micro-structuring, fs-laser micromachining has been used to fabricate optical waveguides in various transparent materials, including glasses, single crystals, ceramics, and polymers [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. By tightly focusing the fs-laser beams into the bulk of the transparent material, the refractive index modification of a small volume can be induced.…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5] Among the various kinds of quantum structures, InAlAs/AlGaAs quantum structures have emerged as excellent candidates as active layers for the laser diodes with 808-nm-wavelength emissions. 6 The inclusion of 40% of the AlGaAs active layer in the InAlAs/AlGaAs quantum structures has inherent problems, however, due to its complicated growth process and surface oxidation.…”
