Isizukulwane se-octave-spanning mid-infrared kusetshenziswa i-BGSe nonlinear crystal

UDkt.JINWEI ZHANG nethimba lakhe abasebenzisa isistimu ye-laser ye-Cr:ZnS eletha ama-pulses angu-28-fs kubude obumaphakathi obungu-2.4 µm basetshenziswa njengomthombo wepompo, oshayela ukukhiqizwa kwemvamisa yomehluko wangaphakathi kwe-intra-pulse ngaphakathi kwekristalu ye-BGSe.Njengomphumela, i-broadband ehambisanayo eqhubekayo ye-infrared esukela ku-6 ukuya ku-18 µm itholiwe.Kubonisa ukuthi ikristalu ye-BGSe iyinto ethembisayo ye-broadband, isizukulwane esimaphakathi ne-infrared emijikelezweni embalwa ngokuguqulwa kwe-frequency phansi ngemithombo yepompo ye-femtosecond.

Isingeniso

Ukukhanya kwe-Mid-infrared (MIR) ebangeni lika-2-20 µm kuyasiza ekuhlonzweni kwamakhemikhali nokokuphila ngenxa yokuba khona kwemigqa eminingi yokumuncwa kwesici samangqamuzana kule ndawo ye-spectral .Umthombo ohlangene, wemijikelezo embalwa onokumbozwa ngasikhathi sinye kobubanzi obubanzi be-MIR ungaqhubeka unike amandla izinhlelo zokusebenza ezintsha njenge-mirco-spectroscopy, i-femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy , kanye nezilinganiso ezizwelayo zobubanzi obunamandla amakhulu Kuze kube manje izikimu eziningi zine
ithuthukiswe ukuze ikhiqize imisebe ehambisanayo ye-MIR, efana nemigqa ye-synchrotron beam, ama-quantum cascade lasers, imithombo ye-supercontinuum, ama-optical parametric oscillator (OPO) nama-optical parametric amplifiers (OPA).Lezi zinhlelo zonke zinamandla kanye nobuthakathaka bazo mayelana nobunzima, umkhawulokudonsa, amandla, ukusebenza kahle, kanye nobude be-pulse.Phakathi kwazo, i-intra-pulse difference frequency generation (IDFG) idonsa ukunakwa okukhulayo ngenxa yokuthuthukiswa kwamalaser e-femtosecond 2 µm anamandla amakhulu akwazi ukumpompa amakristalu angenawo umugqa we-bandgap amancane ukuze akhiqize ukukhanya okuhambisana ne-MIR okunamandla aphezulu.Uma kuqhathaniswa nama-OPO nama-OPA asetshenziswa ngokuvamile, i-IDFG ivumela ukuncishiswa kwenkimbinkimbi yesistimu nokuthuthukiswa kokwethembeka, njengoba kususwa isidingo sokuqondanisa imishayo emibili ehlukene noma izimbotshana ngokunemba okuphezulu.Ngaphandle kwalokho, okukhiphayo kwe-MIR kuyisigaba se-carrier-envelope-phase (CEP) esizinzile nge-IDFG.

Umdwebo 1

I-spectrum yokudlulisa ye-1-mm-thick engagqotshiweIkristalu ye-BGSeinikezwe yi-DIEN TECH.Isingeniso sibonisa ikristalu langempela elisetshenziswe kulokhu kuhlolwa.

Umdwebo 2

Ukusethwa kokuhlola kwesizukulwane se-MIR ngeIkristalu ye-BGSe.I-OAP, isibuko se-parabolic esingaphandle kwe-axis esinobude bokugxila obusebenzayo obungu-20 mm;I-HWP, ipuleti le-half-wave;I-TFP, i-polarizer yefilimu encane;I-LPF, isihlungi se-long-pass.

Ngo-2010, i-biaxial chalcogenide nonlinear crystal entsha, i-BaGa4Se7 (BGSe), yenziwe kusetshenziswa indlela ye-Bridgman-Stockbarger.Inebanga elibanzi lokubonisa ngale ukusuka ku-0.47 kuya ku-18 µm (njengoba kuboniswe ku-Fig. 1) nama-coefficients angaqondile okuthi d11 = 24.3 pm/V kanye no-d13 = 20.4 pm/V.Iwindi lokubonisa ngale le-BGSe libanzi kakhulu kune-ZGP kanye ne-LGS nakuba ukungahambelani kwalo kuphansi kune-ZGP (75 ± 8 pm/V).Ngokungafani ne-GaSe, i-BGSe ingaphinde isikwe nge-engeli efaniswayo yesigaba futhi ingaba yi-anti-reflection coated.

Ukusetha kokuhlola kuboniswe ku-Fig. 2(a).Ama-pulses okushayela aqala akhiqizwa kwimodi ye-Kerr-lens ekhiywe ekhaya i-Cr:ZnS oscillator ene-polycrystalline Cr:ZnS crystal (5 × 2 × 9 mm3 , transmission=15% ku-1908nm) njengendlela yokuzuza empontshwa I-Tm-doped fiber laser ku-1908nm.I-oscillation endaweni yokuma yamagagasi iletha ama-pulses angu-45-fs asebenza ngenani lokuphindaphinda elingu-69 MHz ngamandla amaphakathi angu-1 W kubude begagasi benkampani yenethiwekhi engu-2.4 µm.Amandla akhuliswa abe ngu-3.3 W endaweni eyakhiwe ekhaya enezigaba ezimbili ze-single-pass polycrystalline Cr:ZnS amplifier (5 × 2 × 6 mm3 , transmission=20% at 1908nm and 5 × 2 × 9 mm3 , transmission=15% at 1908nm), kanye nobude be-pulse okukhiphayo kukalwa ngesisetshenziswa sesibili se-harmonic-generation-resolved Optical grating (SHG-FROG) esakhelwe ekhaya.

DSC_0646Isiphetho

Bakhombise umthombo we-MIR neIkristalu ye-BGSengokusekelwe endleleni ye-IDFG.Isistimu ye-laser ye-femtosecond Cr:ZnS kubude begagasi obungu-2.4 µm isetshenziswe njengomthombo wokushayela, okuvumela ukumbozwa kwe-spectral ngasikhathi sinye kusuka ku-6 kuya ku-18 µm.Ngokwazi kwethu konke, kungokokuqala ngqa ukwenziwa kwesizukulwane se-broadband MIR ngekristalu ye-BGSe.Okukhiphayo kulindeleke ukuthi kube nobude be-pulse emijikelezweni embalwa futhi futhi kuzinze esigabeni sakho semvilophu yenkampani yenethiwekhi.Uma kuqhathaniswa namanye amakristalu, umphumela wokuqala ngeI-BGSeikhombisa isizukulwane se-MIR esinomkhawulokudonsa obanzi ofanayo (obanzi kuneI-ZGPfuthiI-LGS) nakuba inamandla amaphakathi aphansi nokusebenza kahle kokuguqulwa.Amandla amaphakathi aphezulu angalindelwa ngokusetshenziswa okwengeziwe kosayizi wendawo okugxilwe kuyo kanye nogqinsi lwekristalu.Ikhwalithi engcono yekristalu enomkhawulo ophezulu wokulimala nayo ingaba yinzuzo ekwandiseni amandla aphakathi kwe-MIR nokusebenza kahle kokuguqulwa.Lo msebenzi ukhombisa lokhoIkristalu ye-BGSeiyinto ethembisayo ye-broadband, isizukulwane se-MIR esihambisanayo.
