Abstract

Solid-state dye samples based on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) co-doped with pyrromethene 567 (PM567) and coumarin 500 (C500) were prepared. The effects of C500 concentration on the performances of the solid state dye mediums, including spectra property, slope efficiency and photostability were studied. The highest slope efficiency 64.25% was obtained in the sample (PM567: C500 = 2: 8). Pumping the samples at a rate of 5Hz with a pulse energy as high as 100 mJ (the fluence was 0.26 J/cm2), the output energy dropped to half of its initial value after approximate 116130 pulses and the normalized photostability reached 75.48 GJ/mol in the sample (PM567: C500 = 2: 1). Our results have shown that it is possible to obtain a high-efficiency with a long-lifetime for a solid-state dye laser co-doped with PM567 and C500.
