英文摘要 | We experimentally demonstrate a high-energy sub 300 fs polarization maintaining fiber chirped pulse amplification (CPA) system. The preamplifier is a monolithic fiberized system that uses two cascaded temperature-assisted dispersion-tuning broadband chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) with a reflected bandwidth of 20 nm as stretchers. To make full use of the stretcher to lower the system’s nonlinearity accumulation, a homemade mode locked fiber laser with a spectral width of 14.8 nm (full width at half maximum) is selected as the seeder to offer a stretched pulse width of 1.69 ns. The main amplifier is based on a one-stage simple Yb:YAG single crystal fiber amplifier with an amplified output power of 40.6 W at a repetition rate of 200 kHz, and the beam quality is conserved in a single mode beam profile with beam quality of 1.246 and 1.142 in the horizontal direction and vertical direction, respectively. During amplification, the spectral gain narrowing effect is observed. To achieve the high-speed switch of the laser, an acoustical optical modulator (AOM) is inserted before the compressor to achieve high-speed turn-on/off control. The compressor is based on a diffraction grating pair with a groove density of 1600 line/mm to offer a dispersion match with the stretcher of the CFBGs. With the CFBG’s fine-tuned capacity of second-order dispersion and higher-order dispersion, the compressed average power of 29.6 W and pulse duration of 278 fs, corresponding to a pulse energy of 148 µJ and a peak power of 532 MW, is obtained. The beam quality is well conserved after compression, and the beam quality is 1.250 and 1.196 in the horizontal direction and vertical direction, respectively. A power fluctuation of 0.1% (root mean square) and a beam pointing drift of 8.47 µrad/°C over 8 hours are realized. This high peak power and high beam quality femtosecond laser is promising in science and industrial applications. © 2022, The Authors. All rights reserved. |
