  • In this study, a compact, picosecond, mid-infrared 3.8 ㎛ MgO:PPLN optical parametric oscillator (OPO) laser output with high peak power is realized using a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) 1 ㎛ solid-state laser seeded by a picosecond fiber laser as the pump source. The pump source was a 50 MHz and 10 ps fiber seed source. After AOM pulse selection and two-stage solid-state amplification, a 1,064 nm laser output with a repetition frequency of 1-2 MHz, pulse width of 9.5 ps, and a maximum average power of 20 W was achieved. Furthermore, a compact short cavity with a unsynchronized pump is adopted through the design of an OPO cavity structure. When the injection pump power was 15 W and the repetition frequency was 1 MHz, the average output power of idler light was 1.19 W, and the corresponding peak power was 119 kW. The optical conversion efficiency was 7.93%. When the repetition frequency was increased to 2 MHz, the average output power of idler light was 1.63 W, the corresponding peak power was 81.5 kW, and the optical conversion efficiency was 10.87%. At the same time, the output wavelength was measured at 3,806 nm, and the beam quality was MX2 = 3.21 and MY2 = 3.34.

  • 본 논문에서는 고출력 광섬유 레이저의 유도 브릴루앙 산란 억제 특성을 분석하기 위하여, 구형파, 사인파, 임의파 조건의 온도구배 기구부를 설계 및 제작하였다. 또한 전광섬유 MOPA (master oscillator power amplifier) 구조의 이터븀 첨가 편광유지 광섬유 증폭기를 제작하였으며, 온도구배 조건별 역반사 스펙트럼 및 출력을 측정하였다. 구형파 조건의 온도구배에 의해 유도 브릴루앙 산란이 가장 효과적으로 억제되었으며, PRBS (pseudo-random binary sequence) 위상변조 조건과 온도구배 간의 유도 브릴루앙 산란 특성에 끼치는 상호 영향성을 분석하였다.
