中文摘要
  近三十年來,Nd:YAG高功率固態雷射一直有無法取代的地位。Nd:YAG的激發波長為808nm,可以產生1064nm之雷射,屬於四能階雷射;Yb:YAG的激發波長則為940nm,可以產生1030nm之雷射,屬於準三能階雷射。相較於Nd:YAG雷射,Yb:YAG雷射具有較小的量子缺陷,其量子轉換效率較高,且產生的熱較少,能夠減少因熱造成的光學形變等問題,所以Yb:YAG具有取代Nd:YAG的潛力。

  本研究的主要目的是在以Yb:YAG晶體為雷射增益介質,承襲本實驗室研發的「多次再入射雙鏡式立體環形共振腔雷射系統」與技術成熟的「電子束蒸鍍系統」,我們希望能夠研製以Yb:YAG為增益介質的雙鏡式立體環形共振腔雷射系統。

  在本論文中,我先介紹多次再入射環型共振腔之應用、原理與精確解析解,再搭配模態匹配的數值模擬分析及雷射晶體的散熱系統,來克服準三能階雷射的熱效應問題。也會介紹我們針對此雷射系統所設計的光學鍍膜,運用本實驗室的電子束熱蒸鍍系統,成功地將光學薄膜鍍製於Yb:YAG晶體、輸入/輸出耦合透鏡等表面,完成雷射共振腔之光學元件的製作。更進一步地,實現雙鏡式立體環型共振腔雷射系統,產生1030nm紅外光雷射。本實驗架構未來可朝單縱膜雷射、脈衝雷射等方面研究,是一種極具研究價值與市場價值的雷射架構。
Abstract
In the past thirty years, high power laser technology has been dominated by Nd:YAG as the gain medium. The pump wavelength of Nd:YAG is 808nm, and the lasing wavelength is 1064nm. It is categorized as four-level laser. The pump wavelength of Yb:YAG is 940nm, and the lasing wavelength is 1030nm. It falls into quasi-three-level laser category. Because Yb:YAG have higher quantum efficiency and less surplus heat, it have the potential to replace Nd:YAG.

The purpose of this study is to develop a multi-reentrant two-mirror Yb:YAG ring laser. In this thesis, we will introduce multi-reentrant two-mirror ring laser. The thermal problem of quasi-three-level laser was overcome by multi-wavelength coating on gain medium and input/output couplers, numerical simulation for mode match, and efficient TE-cooling for laser crystal.

This symmetrical two-mirror figure “8” ring cavity has the merit of compact, few optical elements, and easy design. The 1030nm output laser of our ring cavity promises to make the design widely applicable to solid-state lasers, such as single longitudinal lasers and mode-locked lasers.
