Abstract

A 2 W deep-ultraviolet (DUV) source at 274 nm with 5.6 kW peak power is demonstrated by frequency quadrupling a diode-seeded, polarization-maintaining (PM), Yb-doped fiber master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system delivering 1.8 ns pulses at a repetition rate of 200 kHz. The second harmonic generation (SHG) and the fourth harmonic generation (FHG) are achieved by using Lithium Triborate (LBO) crystal and β−BaB2O4 (BBO) crystal in sequence, with an IR-to-green and green-to-UV conversion efficiency of up to 65% and 26%, respectively. This is the first kW peak power pulsed UV system reported at 274 nm which has great potential for machining insulators, 2D materials, isotopic separation of Calcium-48, and fluorescence analysis of biological molecules.
