Double-wavelength pulsed tunable dye laser
Abstract
Simultaneous tunable two wavelength operation of the tunable dye laser pumped by SHG of a Nd:YAG pulsed repetitive Q switched laser is described. The R6G, R6G+R640 and R6G+LD473 mixtures in methanol solution were studied. The proper choice of the beam splitter and the Brewster prism pre-expander grazing incident grating cavity provided a wide tunable spectral range and low background ASE. The polarized peak output power of the laser is about 40 kW and the spectral bandwidth is 0.22 cm/1.
