Abstract

We present a novel approach for generation at 213nm in continuous-wave, corresponding to the fifth harmonic of common 1064nm laser, in pure continuous-wave mode. The approach is scalable in output power. Starting from two infrared fiber laser sources, we demonstrated 0.456W output at 213nm.

Highlights

  • The thulium-doped fiber amplifier (TDFA) is an in-house, single-stage clad-pumped amplifier, and is seeded by an in-house, single-frequency fiber laser oscillator at 1907nm with an output power of 40mW

  • Since all 3 interacting beams are all in the same polarization, the Brewster-cut end facets are effective for low loss resonator as well as for low-loss outcoupling of the generated 852nm

  • With up to 4.02W of 852nm available for the harmonic generation, 2.41W of 426nm was obtained from the first external resonant doubler containing 20mm long type-I LBO cut at φ=90°, θ=27.4° for the type-I critical phasematching at room temperature

Summary

Introduction

The thulium-doped fiber amplifier (TDFA) is an in-house, single-stage clad-pumped amplifier, and is seeded by an in-house, single-frequency fiber laser oscillator at 1907nm with an output power of 40mW. Pumped with two 9-W multimode diode lasers at 793nm, it gives an output power of approximately 5W. The seed laser at 1907nm is free running and does not have the frequency control capability.
