We present an experimental and theoretical study of sum-frequency generation of two infrared photons and one visible photon in a lithium iodate crystal. The sum-frequency light can be generated directly in a third-order process as well as in two subsequent ...
Nd:YAG laser welding of high reflectivity metals is difficult because of the highly non-linear light-material interaction yielding a narrow process window and poor reliability. However, achieving high reliability is mandatory for applying this technique in ...
A novel spectral phase conjugation scheme by three-wave mixing is proposed. It is shown that a phase-conjugated and time-reversed replica of the incoming signal can be generated, if appropriate quasi-phase matching is achieved and the three-wave mixing pro ...
Frequency doubling with a free-running long-pulse Nd:YAG laser and LBO or KTP nonlinear crystals yields conversion efficiency of up to 17.5% and 162 W peak power in the second harmonic. This efficiency is obtained for a TEM00 beam with rectangular temporal ...
First results and analysis of second harmonic generation with a Nd:YAG laser working in the long pulse, free running mode are presented in this paper. Second harmonic generation conversion efficiencies of up to 17.5% and pulse powers of 162W have been gene ...
In order to improve the reliability of micro-spot welding of metal parts in production such as e.g. in electron guns for TV picture tubes, real-time information about the evolution of the welding process should be available to allow on-line modification of ...
Spontaneous parametric processes pumped transversely with short pulses are studied under a unified framework, which proves that such processes can efficiently generate entangled photon pairs with time anticorrelation and frequency correlation. Improvements ...
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 ...
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 ...
Industrial laser precision machining is predominately based on pulsed Nd:YAG lasers operated at a wavelength of 1.06 µm in a free running pulse regime. The objective of this thesis work has been to investigate second and third harmonic generation for such ...
