Performance analysis and characterization of the Lumonics Inc. HyperDYE-300 laser-pumped dye laser. Final technical report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5992660
The laser analyzed in this research, the Lumonics, Inc. HyperDYE-300 laser pumped dye laser, was procured via the FSTC D650 Program and was characterized in order to support the technology development of that program. The dye laser was pumped with a Neodymium:YAG q-switched laser and it utilized Rhodamine-6G in methanol. It was found to be tunable from about 545 nm to 590 nm and produced a maximum ouput energy of 56 percent of the pump beam energy. The analysis involved the measuring of optimum dye/solvent concentration, output energy versus tunability, optical efficiency versus tunability, temporal and spatial profiles, beam divergence, linewidth, and amplified spontaneous emission versus laser emission.
