A compact diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 ring laser was developed for generation of relatively long (few tens nanoseconds) single-frequency pulses for high-spectral-resolution LIDAR applications. Exploiting the feedback from an external mirror and Cr:YAG passive Q-switching with pulsed pump, unidirectional single-frequency operation with high quality 50-ns, 80-J TEM00 pulses was achieved from 100 Hz to 10 kHz. Amplitude, duration and repetition rate stability of the pulses was better than 1%.

Abstract

A compact diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 ring laser was developed for generation of relatively long (few tens nanoseconds) single-frequency pulses for high-spectral-resolution LIDAR applications. Exploiting the feedback from an external mirror and Cr:YAG passive Q-switching with pulsed pump, unidirectional single-frequency operation with high quality 50-ns, 80-J TEM00 pulses was achieved from 100 Hz to 10 kHz. Amplitude, duration and repetition rate stability of the pulses was better than 1%.

Applied Physics/Condensed Matter/Materials Science encompasses the resources of three related disciplines: Applied Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, and Materials Science. The applied physics resources are concerned with the applications of topics in condensed matter as well as optics, vacuum science, lasers, electronics, cryogenics, magnets and magnetism, acoustical physics and mechanics. The condensed matter physics resources are concerned with the study of the structure and the thermal, mechanical, electrical, magnetic and optical properties of condensed matter. They include superconductivity, surfaces, interfaces, thin films, dielectrics, ferroelectrics and semiconductors. The materials science resources are concerned with the physics and chemistry of materials and include ceramics, composites, alloys, metals and metallurgy, nanotechnology, nuclear materials, adhesion and adhesives. Resources dealing with polymeric materials are listed in the Organic Chemistry/Polymer Science category.
