    Abstract [en]

    We report on passive mode-locking of a Ti:sapphire laser employing a single-walled carbon nanotube saturable absorber (SWCNT-SA) specially designed and fabricated for wavelengths near 800 nm. Mode-locked pulses as short as 62 fs were generated at a repetition rate of 99.4 MHz. We achieved output powers from the SWCNT-SA mode-locked laser as high as 600 mW with a slope efficiency of 26%. The characteristics of SWCNT-SA-assisted mode-locking were compared with those of Kerr-lens mode-locking without SWCNT-SA.

    Stretching-tunable external-cavity laser locked by an elastic silicone grating2006In: Optics Express, E-ISSN 1094-4087, Vol. 14, no 25, p. 11982-11986Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We demonstrate wavelength locking of a diode laser at 760 nm with feedback from an elastic transmission grating in the Littrow configuration. The laser was in a single longitudinal mode with a side-mode suppression of 20 dB. By stretching the grating the laser could be tuned over a few nm. The grating was fabricated in a silicone elastomer ( polydimethylsiloxane) by a moulding technique, and coated by a thin layer of Ti and Au to achieve an increased diffraction efficiency needed for efficient locking.

    Abstract [en]

    Erbium (Er)- and Ytterbium (Yb)-codoped monoclinic KLu(WO4) 2 single crystals were grown by top seeded solution growth-slow cooling method for several different doping concentrations. Growth parameters have been optimized to obtain macrodefect-free single crystals. Er energy levels involved in the 4I13/2 → 4I 15/2 were determined by 6 K polarized optical absorption. The maximum emission cross section for this electronic transition has been evaluated, being 2.85 × 10-20 cm2 for E||Nm at 1535 nm. Laser oscillation in the 1.5 μm range was obtained by pumping the Yb ion at 980 nm and sensitizing Er. The maximum output power achieved was 152 mW, with 1.2% slope efficiency.

    Fluorescence dynamics and rate equations analysis in Er3+,Yb3+ doped double tungstates2006In: Applied Optics, ISSN 1559-128X, E-ISSN 2155-3165, Vol. 45, no 19, p. 4715-4725Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The fluorescence dynamics in Er3+ and Yb3+ doped KGd(WO4)(2) and KY(WO4)(2) has been investigated. Lifetimes have been measured for the Yb(F-2(5/2)), Er(I-4(13/2)), and Er(S-4(3/2)) levels around 1, 1.5, and 0.55 mu m, respectively. The Yb(F-2(5/2)) lifetimes show a decreasing trend toward the limiting Er(I-4(11/2)) lifetime with increasing Er-to-Yb concentration ratio, whereas the Er(I-4(13/2)) lifetimes are mostly unaffected by the doping concentrations. A rate equation analysis has been performed to explain the observed behavior and gain is calculated for a continuous-wave laser at 1.53 mu m to find the optimum doping concentrations for high gain.

    Abstract [en]

    Here we show the results we obtained in the fabrication of planar wave guide lasers based on monoclinic double tungstates doped with Er3+ and Tm3+. We have successfully introduced these ions into the lattice matched KY0.59Gd0.19Lu0.22(WO4)(2) epitaxial layers grown on KY(WO4)(2) substrates without loss of optical quality and keeping a high refractive index contrast between the epitaxial layer and the substrate. We characterized the waveguiding properties of these epitaxial layers at lambda = 632.8 nm by dark modes spectroscopy, and we showed that these waveguides can support several TE and TM modes. Spectroscopic characterization of the active lanthanide ions in these crystals is also presented.

    Intracavity-pumped, cascaded AgGaSe2 optical parametric oscillator tunable from 5.8 to 18 mu m2015In: Optics Express, E-ISSN 1094-4087, Vol. 23, no 26, p. 33460-33465Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A AgGaSe2 nonlinear crystal placed in a coupled cavity is intracavity pumped by the similar to 1.85-mu m signal pulses of a 1.064-mu m pumped Rb: PPKTP doubly-resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) operating at a repetition rate of 100 Hz. Using two samples cut for type-I and II phase-matching, the overall idler tunability of the singly-resonant AgGeSe2 OPO covers an unprecedented spectral range from 5.8 to similar to 18 mu m in the mid-IR.

    Optical parametric oscillator pumped at similar to 1 mu m with intracavity mid-IR difference-frequency generation in OPGaAs2018In: Optical Materials Express, ISSN 2159-3930, E-ISSN 2159-3930, Vol. 8, no 3, p. 549-554Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Intracavity difference-frequency generation (DFG) between signal and idler pulses is investigated in orientation-patterned GaAs inside the cavity of a similar to 1 mu m pumped nanosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO). Using two different samples and temperature tuning in the non-critical configuration, tunability between 7 and 9.2 mu m is demonstrated. The superior thermo-mechanical properties of OPGaAs enabled also for the first time operation of this cascaded scheme at kilohertz (1-3 kHz) repetition rates reaching average powers similar to 10 mW in the mid-IR.

    Abstract [en]

    We present a narrowband, non-resonant optical parametric oscillator based on 5-mm thick Rb-doped periodically-poled KTiOPO4 (PPKTP) operating in the high-energy/low repetition-rate regime. An uncoated volume Bragg grating (VBG) is employed as one of the cavity mirrors reflecting only the signal whereas the other cavity mirror is reflecting only the idler. Pumping by a Nd:YAG laser at 1.0642 mu m in a double-pass, the signal plus idler output energy reached almost 5 mJ at a repetition rate of 100 Hz corresponding to a conversion efficiency of similar to 26%. Both signal and idler are narrowband with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 0.5 nm at 1942 nm and 0.76 nm at 2355 nm, respectively.

    Intra-cavity dark pulse generation through synchronized sum-frequency mixing2022In: Optics Letters, ISSN 0146-9592, E-ISSN 1539-4794, Vol. 47, no 5, p. 1105-1108Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A Nd:YVO4 laser operating at 1064 nm generating a stable mode-locked train of 10 ps-long dark pulses with a 211 MHz repetition rate is presented. The mode-locking relies on a periodic loss modulation produced by intra-cavity sum-frequency mixing with a synchronous bright-pulse train from a mode-locked femtosecond Yb:KYW laser at 1040 nm. A modulation depth of 9050 was achieved for the dark pulses, confirmed by cross-correlation measurements. The ultrafast loss modulation injects power into the Nd:YVO4 laser cavity modes beyond the laser gain bandwidth. At proper laser cavity length, the detuning interaction of these modes with the lasing modes leads to the generation of periodic ultra-fast transients at frequencies above 1.5 THz.

    Highly efficient periodically poled KTP-isomorphs with large apertures and extreme domain aspect-ratios2018In: Nonlinear Frequency Generation and Conversion: Materials and Devices XVII, SPIE - International Society for Optical Engineering, 2018, Vol. 10516, article id 105160WConference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Since the early 1990's, a substantial effort has been devoted to the development of quasi-phased-matched (QPM) nonlinear devices, not only in ferroelectric oxides like LiNbO3, LiTaO3 and KTiOPO4 (KTP), but also in semiconductors as GaAs, and GaP. The technology to implement QPM structures in ferroelectric oxides has by now matured enough to satisfy the most basic frequency-conversion schemes without substantial modification of the poling procedures. Here, we present a qualitative leap in periodic poling techniques that allows us to demonstrate devices and frequency conversion schemes that were deemed unfeasible just a few years ago. Thanks to our short-pulse poling and coercive-field engineering techniques, we are able to demonstrate large aperture (5 mm) periodically poled Rb-doped KTP devices with a highly-uniform conversion efficiency over the whole aperture. These devices allow parametric conversion with energies larger than 60 mJ. Moreover, by employing our coercive-field engineering technique we fabricate highlyefficient sub-μm periodically poled devices, with periodicities as short as 500 nm, uniform over 1 mm-Thick crystals, which allow us to realize mirrorless optical parametric oscillators with counter-propagating signal and idler waves. These novel devices present unique spectral and tuning properties, superior to those of conventional OPOs. Furthermore, our techniques are compatible with KTA, a KTP isomorph with extended transparency in the mid-IR range. We demonstrate that our highly-efficient PPKTA is superior both for mid-IR and for green light generation-as a result of improved transmission properties in the visible range. Our KTP-isomorph poling techniques leading to highly-efficient QPM devices will be presented. Their optical performance and attractive damage thresholds will be discussed.

    Polarization switching characteristics of flux grown KTiOPO4 and RbTiOPO4 at room temperature2005In: Journal of Applied Physics, ISSN 0021-8979, E-ISSN 1089-7550, Vol. 97, no 12, p. 124105-Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A study of polarization-switching characteristics under an applied electrical field at room temperature is presented for flux-grown KTiOPO4 and RbTiOPO4. By optimizing the experimental conditions, we determined the coercive field and the domain-switching time quantitatively by direct observation of the switching current. For both isomorphs, the inverse of the polarization-switching time, 1/t(s), follows an exponential dependence on the applied field E in low-field regime, and a linear dependence on E in the high-field regime. Domain morphology of KTiOPO4 based on selective etching reveals laminar structures elongated in the b crystallographic direction. An estimation of the domain-wall velocity shows that the domain speed in the polar direction is, at least, two orders of magnitude larger than in the a-b plane. The velocity along the b direction is similar to 30 times larger than along the a axis.

    Mirrorless optical parametric oscillator2007In: Nature Photonics, ISSN 1749-4885, Vol. 1, no 8, p. 459-462Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Parametric interaction of counterpropagating photons has the unique property of automatically establishing distributed feedback and thus realizing novel sources of coherent and tunable radiation, such as mirrorless optical parametric oscillators. This device does not require alignment or any optical components other than the second-order nonlinear medium itself(1). Here we present the first experimental demonstration of such an oscillator, which was made feasible by quasi phase-matching in a nonlinear photonic structure with submicrometre periodicity. This type of oscillator has been extensively discussed as a theoretical possibility(1-5). It generates signal and idler waves in the near- and mid-infrared, respectively, and exhibits unique and useful spectral properties. The oscillator signal is essentially a wavelength-shifted replica of the pump spectrum, and the bandwidth of the idler is two orders of magnitude narrower than that of the pump. It also has very low output wavelength sensitivity to temperature variations.

    High-resolution domain imaging on the nonpolar y-face of periodically poled KTiOPO4 by means of atomic force microscopy2003In: Applied Physics Letters, ISSN 0003-6951, E-ISSN 1077-3118, Vol. 83, no 4, p. 734-736Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The inverse piezoelectric effect is used to produce high-resolution images of ferroelectric domains in periodically poled KTiOPO4 crystals on their nonpolar y-face using atomic force microscopy. We demonstrate that the technique is convenient for studying the nucleation and growth of domains in a periodically poled KTiOPO4 sample.

    Periodic poling of KTiOPO4: From micrometer to sub-micrometer domain gratings2006In: Ferroelectrics (Print), ISSN 0015-0193, E-ISSN 1563-5112, Vol. 340, no 1, p. 27-47Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Some novel techniques to do periodic poling of KTP are described. Emphasis on ways to avoid domain broadening and merging of domains is presented with reference to the original properties of flux grown KTP. For sub-Am structures E-beam lithography and deep UV-laser lithography were used to pattern the samples, and chemical process to promote selective poling to obtain high quality domain gratings in up to 1 mm thick samples.
