A high power short pulse stimulated Raman source at 1.54µm
An actively modelocked Q-switched Nd:YAG laser produces efficient stimulated Raman scattering in high pressure methane using a Raman oscillator/amplifier configuration. First Stokes output at 1.54 µm is generated up to 30 MW in a single pulse of ~40ps duration. Good temporal and spatial coherence is maintained with the same pulse energy stability, ±6%, as the Nd:YAG output.

Abstract

An actively modelocked Q-switched Nd:YAG laser produces efficient stimulated Raman scattering in high pressure methane using a Raman oscillator/amplifier configuration. First Stokes output at 1.54 µm is generated up to 30 MW in a single pulse of ~40ps duration. Good temporal and spatial coherence is maintained with the same pulse energy stability, ±6%, as the Nd:YAG output.
