Abstract
High power 509 nm continuous-wave (CW) lasers have important applications in science and communication. Here we demonstrate a robust high-power single-frequency 509 nm laser system based on nonlinear phase demodulation technique and single-pass second harmonic generation (SHG) configuration. In experiments, the single-frequency fundamental wave at 1018 nm was linewidth-broadened by an electro-optical modulator and then amplified to 207 W in a ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier. In subsequent single-pass SHG stage, over 20 W CW single-frequency 509 nm laser was generated in a LiB3O5 crystal with a SHG efficiency of 9.7%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest reported power for CW single-frequency 509 nm laser, which could be used for advanced underwater optical communication and preparation of cesium Rydberg state.
