Title: Suppression of mode-beating noise in a q-switched pulsed laser using novel q-switch device
Inventor: GENDRON DENIS J
IPC: H01S3/098
Filed: 2004-03-05
Abstract: A novel Q-switch device enables significant quality and value improvement for a Q-switched laser system by achieving a significant reduction of mode-beating noise during the pulsed output. The origin of mode-beating noise in a Q-switched laser is a result of high gain availability and amplification of competing standing-waves in formation;  whose optical frequency is a product of natural selection via spatial hole burning in the gain medium. The novel Q-switch device employs an active, electro-optics or acousto-optics, Q-switch in combination with a saturable absorber device, to provide an optimized soft opening of the optical path and a controlled timing of a Q-switched laser. This novel combination offers larger modulation loss than otherwise possible with the active modulator alone, and it allows for higher gain build-up and energy extraction efficiency.  Specifically, it will enable a low-voltage modulator ( < 100 V) for high gain (small-signal gain > 10) and Q-switched operation at high repetition rate ( > 10 kHz). The combination is devised to slow down the signal build-up and to sweep the fundamental longitudinal mode frequency at least within the free spectral range of the resonator, such that it varies adiabatically during the Q-switched pulse formation. A laser geometry amenable to high gain and high power is proposed for use in conjunction with the proposed novel Q-switch device. The invention will enable the deployment of cost-effective Q-switched lasers operating in both single-longitudinal and single-transverse (TEM00) mode.
