  • The spectroscopic properties of Cr3+-doped sapphire and Ti3+-doped sapphire fibers are reported. Tensile stress produces blue shifts of the R lines and changes in their radiative lifetimes and integrated intensities which can be correlated to stress-induced changes of the crystal-field parameters in a Cr3+-doped sapphire fiber. A net red shift of the zero phonon fluorescence line of 2Eg state and a decrease of the splittings of 2T2g state with uniaxial stress are observed in a Ti3+-doped sapphire. In excitation spectra the two peaks from the 2Eg state are shifted to the blue with different rates. The changes are attributed to the stress-induced changes of crystal field and Jahn-Teller effect.

  • Experimental study is performed on flashlamp-pumped Ti: sapphire lasers with single, double, and four-partial-ellipse-pump cavities aiming at improving the performance of the lasers. The output energy of 604 mJ per pulse with a width of 25 $\mu$s at a total laser efficiency of 0.13% is achieved in the laser pumped by a light pulse of 45$\mu$s without a fluorescent converter The laser output energy versus its Ti: sappy ire rod length, pumping-light pulse duration, and electrical input energy are discussed with or without using a fluorescent converter. The result shows that much more output energy is obtained il a longer Ti: sapphire-rod laser pumped by a shorter light pulse when its output coupler has an optimized transmittance. In addition, an enhancement of output energy by a factor of 7 is achieved. in the laser using a fluorescent converter LD490.

  • Room temperature cw operations of a standing wave and a unidirectional Ti:Sapphire laser pumped by a $Ar^+$ laser have been demonstrated in the same pumping cavity configuration. Laser emission at 790 nm was excited with all-line $Ar^+$ laser pump for both cavities. The maximum output power was found to be 600 mW in the standing wave cavity and 210 mW in the ring cavity. Values of (83 ${\pm}$ 10) % for the internal quantum efficiency and (3.0 ${\pm}$ 0.5) % for the round-trip cavity loss for standing wave cavity are obtained from the thresholds and slope efficiencies measured with 2.4 and 11.2 % optput couplers. The measured cavity-loss value at 790 nm gives a meterial figure of merit (FOM) to be 146. Unidirectional operation of the ring Ti:Sapphire laser will be discussed.

  • A chirped-pulse amplification femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser operating at 1 KHz has been developed. The laser system consisted of a long-cavity femtosecond oscillator, a four-pass grating pulse stretcher, two multi-pass amplifiers and a double-pass grating pulse compressor. Thermal lensing at the amplifiers was reduced by cooling Ti:sapphire crystals using Peltier coolers. Gain narrowing and residual phase errors were compensated for by the use of an acousto-optic pulse shaper. The final laser output had an energy per pulse of 2.0 mJ and a pulse duration of 19.5 fs, reaching 0.1 TW at 1 KHz.

  • 고출력 펨토초 레이저 기술은 커렌즈 모드록킹 기술, Ti:sapphire 이득매질의 개발, chirped pulse amplification (CPA) 등의 도움으로 1980년대 후반부터 급속히 발전해 왔다. 생성된 펨토초 펄스의 시간적 특성을 정확히 알아내기 위한 방법들도 많이 연구되어 주파수 분해 괌게이팅(FROG)이나 주파수위상 간섭계(SPIDER) 등의 방법들이 기존의 자체상관계를 대체하게 되었다. 극초단 레이저 펄스는 넓은 스펙트럼을 갖고 첨두출력이 높기 때문에 매질이나 광학계를 지나면서 군지연분산, 자체위상변조 등의 효과에 의한 시간적 위상변화가 쉽게 생긴다.

  • For the first time we compare two kinds of optical frequency combs, one of which is based on a Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser and the other is based on a mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser. The comparison is performed by measuring an optical frequency standard with these two combs simultaneously. The two frequency measurements agree within 1.8 Hz ($3.8{\times}10^{-15}$) with the uncertainty of 17.2 Hz ($3.6{\times}10^{-14}$), from which it can be concluded that the Ti:sapphire-based frequency comb and the fiber-based frequency comb have no systematic discrepancy at this level of uncertainty.

  • To improve sensing capability of infrared, heat-resistance and mechanical properties, the $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ anti-reflective layers were coated on sapphire substrate by MOCVD. The standard wavelength was 4,600nm, and the thickness of anti-reflective layers were 379 and 758nm in case of ${\lambda}/4$ and ${\lambda}/2$ of incident angle($65^{\circ}$), respectively. The $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ anti-reflective layers were coated 12.6 and 9.7nm/min of deposition rates by increasing oxygen pressure to set the ideal refractive index of 1.283. In case of $SiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ coating, the transmittance increased from 55.0 to 62.7%. The transmittance of $TiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ anti-reflective layer also increased from 55.0 to 64.8%. The flexural strength of $SiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ and $TiO_2({\lambda}/2)$ layer coated sapphire increased from 337.8 to 362.9 and 371.8MPa, respectively. The flexural strength at $500^{\circ}C$ of these materials also increased respectively to 304.5, 358.2MPa from 265.9MPa. From these results, we confirmed these materials can be used as transmission window of infrared light.
