摘要
陶瓷激光器是一种以透明陶瓷材料作为增益介质的激光器。与单晶相比,透明陶瓷具有制备周期短和烧结温度低等优势,在激活离子高掺杂浓度下能保证良好的光学均匀性,且容易制备成各种大尺寸复合结构。近年在高功率和超短超强激光输出方面得到广泛应用,产生了一系列研究成果。回顾了陶瓷激光器的发展历程,总结了透明陶瓷在高功率、超短超强脉冲激光输出和特殊波长激光输出等方面的最新进展,并阐述了基于陶瓷制备优势的新型激光材料的发展趋势。
Abstract
A ceramic laser is one using transparent ceramic materials as its gain media. Compared with single crystals, transparent ceramics have the advantages such as short preparation cycle and low sintering temperature. They possess good optical uniformity under high doping concentration of active ions and are easily developed into various large size composite structures. In recent years, ceramic lasers have made a rapid progress in high power as well as ultra-short and ultra-strong laser operation, and have induced a series of achievements. In this paper, the development progress of ceramic lasers is reviewed and the latest developments of transparent ceramics in high power, ultra-short pulsed laser operation and laser output with special wavelengths are summarized. In addition, the development trend of novel laser materials based on the advantages of ceramic preparation is also prospected.
