Title: Picosecond dye laser with a tuning grating and a double-prism beam expander

Journal Article · · Chin. Phys. Lasers; (United States)
OSTI ID:6383723

A dye laser cavity with a tuning grating and a double-prism beam expander has been synchronously pumped by a repetitively pulsed, mode-locked YAG laser. The following experimental results have been obtained by using an R6G laser dye: pulse duration 30 ps, peak power 7.6 MW, pulse repetition rate 20 Hz, average power 9.5 mW, and linewidth 0.04 nm (close to the transform-limited linewidth). The laser offers advantages of output energy stability and easy wavelength tunability.
