| 20100091806 | Semiconductor Lasers with Improved Temporal, Spectral, and Spatial Stability and Beam Profile Uniformity - A method for improving spectral, spatial, and temporal stability of semiconductor lasers and their beam profile uniformity based on statistical average of plural transient or unsteady state longitudinal and lateral modes that are continuously perturbed. A laser module implementing the method comprises a semiconductor laser, a drive circuit generating RF-modulated drive current, and an automatic power control loop for producing stable, low noise and uniform or nearly uniform illumination field along one or two dimensions. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20090201952 | Method and apparatus for producing UV laser from all-solid-state system - An all-solid-state laser system produces coherent DUV radiation through a third or fourth harmonic generation. The fundamental wavelength is generated by a slave laser optically pumped by one or more light source(s) of high density array(s) and is stabilized by injecting optical seeds whose wavelength is rapidly swept to cover the fundamental wavelength. The pump effects are enhanced by a pump chamber that recycles unabsorbed pump light. The present invention enables DUV pulses with a width shorter than 1 ns and a repetition rate higher than 100 kHz. The output DUV wavelength is adjustable by selecting an appropriate seeder. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090097507 | Wavelength and Intensity Stabilized Laser Diode and Application of Same to Pumping Solid-State Lasers - An efficient and low-noise solid-state laser is optically pumped by one or more laser diode(s) driven by RF modulated current. The solid-state laser operation is stabilized by the pump source stable in both spectrum and intensity, in conjunction with automatic power control wherein the feedback loop accurately reflects the true drift in the output power. Moreover, the pump efficiency is optimized and the optical noise is minimized by adjusting the diode operation temperature such that the pump wavelength coincides with the absorption peak of the gain medium. By internally or externally modulating the amplitude of the drive current, the pump diode(s) operate in pulsed mode with controllable shape, width, repetition rate, and pulse-to-pulse intervals, which enables essentially constant optical energy produced from each pulse of the solid-state laser in high repetition rates with variable pulse-to-pulse intervals. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090059968 | INJECTION-SEEDED MONOLITHIC LASER - An injection seeding laser system in which the seeded laser has a monolithic structure without any moving parts. The seeder emits light whose wavelength is swept in a radio frequency (RF) over a range that covers one or more longitudinal mode(s) of the seeded laser, which eliminates the need for active cavity length control and phase locking between the injected and output signals. The gain medium of the seeded laser is an active medium whose population is substantially inversed in response to an excitation, which can be electrical or optical. Time synchronization between the injected seeds and the triggering signal to the slave is generally not required. The present invention enables fiber MOPO that produces high power laser pulses in an efficient and cost-effective manner. | 03-05-2009 |
