Fiber lasers are compact lightsources with high intrinsic beam quality and high efficiency. The lasing spectrum ranges from the blue to the near infrared and is achievable using fibers with different dopants and glass compositions. All-fiber lasers are cha ...
Because of the strong electron-phonon coupling of the emitting 3d orbital in transition-metal (TM) ions, 3d systems exhibit luminescence with typically several hundred nm of spectral bandwidth. TM-ion-doped materials are, therefore, of high interest for ap ...
This work presents the development of an original concept of a side pumped diode pumped crystal laser for the generation of a high power near diffraction limited beam for material processing applications such as cutting, marking and drilling. An approach b ...
Characteristics of one-cascade (1.06 double right arrow 1.24 mum) and two-cascade (1.06 double right arrow 1.24 double right arrow 1.48 mum) phosphorus-doped fiber Raman lasers are studied. The cavities of both lasers are formed by Bragg gratings written d ...
Multi-hydrogenated compounds detection based on photoacoustic (PA) spectroscopy is reported. Three near-infrared semiconductor lasers are used with a resonant PA cell operated in its first longitudinal mode to monitor methane, water vapour and hydrogen chl ...
In this paper, we present a novel Brillouin fiber-ring laser utilizing an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer (UMZI) as coupling device. The laser is pumped by a distributed-feedback laser diode and shows continuous-wave and single-frequency operation. ...
We present the design of a highly efficient, pulsed ammonia laser which is optically pumped by a commercial TEA CO2 laser and is line tunable in the spectral range of 780-930 cm(-1). The power, spectral, and temporal characteristics of the laser have been ...
The launch of molecules from liquid surfaces in a time of flight mass spectrometer has been investigated using different sample preparation techniques, and by exposing the liquid samples to two different laser wavelengths, 337 nm from a N2 ultraviolet lase ...
The present work is part of a feasibility study to investigate the excimer laser photon-assisted thermal decompn. of anthracene at 248 nm. The principle is to combine UV photons of an appropriate light source and heat in an incinerating reactor at modest t ...
The Brillouin fibre laser has experimentally demonstrated its suitability for the measurement of laser linewidth in the 1 kHz to 500 kHz frequency range. A major advantage of this system is to be widely independent of the source wavelength by generating th ...
