Spectroscopy and lasing of Tm:SrMoO4 crystal near 1.5, 1.9, and 2.3 μm under 793 nm excitation

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The spectroscopy properties and lasing of diode pumped Tm-doped strontium molybdate SrMoO4 single crystal were investigated at room temperature. The Tm:SrMoO4 crystal was grown by the Czochralski method in air (2 wt.% of TmNbO4 in the melt). The tested Tm:SrMoO4 sample was cut from the grown crystal boule perpendicularly to growth direction (100). For spectroscopy and laser experiments 4.2 mm thick plane-parallel face-polished plate (without AR coatings) was used. A fiber-coupled laser diode operating at wavelength 793 nm was used for longitudinal Tm:SrMoO4 pumping which corresponds to H-3(4) level excitation. Fluorescence spectra measurement showed strong emission in vicinity of 1.8 mu m (F-3(4) -> H-3(6) transition), and also significant emission close to wavelengths 1.45 mu m (H-3(4) -> F-3(4) transition) and 2.31.1.m (H-3(4) -> H-3(5) transition). The lasing was successfully reached for all these three transitions and output characteristics were measured. The pumping laser diode was operating in the pulsed regime with a low duty cycle. The 145 mm long semi-hemispherical laser resonator consisted of flat pumping mirror (HT @ 0.79 mu m) and curved (r = 150 mm) output coupler. For each lasing transition the particular set of resonator mirrors was used to reach high reflexivity of pumping mirror and output coupler transmission 0.5 % at laser operation wavelength. The obtained laser emission wavelengths were 1.95 mu m, 1.45 & 1.49 mu m, and 2.30 mu m. In spite of low laser slope efficiency in respect to absorbed pumping power (0.45 % for H-3(4) -> F-3(4) transition, 0.50 % for F-3(4) -> H-3(6) transition and 0.83 % for H-3(4) -> H-3(5) transition), results obtained are promising for further development of diode-pumped laser at 2.3 mu m spectral region.
