摘要: 本文使用有限元分析(FEA)计算了非平面环形腔激光器中的热透镜效应。光程差(OPD)方法表明,热透镜受到应变和端面膨胀的显著影响。实验得到了非平面环形腔激光器的斜效率为0.17,实验结果证实了晶体结构的正确性。
Abstract: The thermal lens effect in a nonplanar ring oscillator laser was calculated using finite element analysis (FEA). The optical path difference (OPD) method shows that the thermal lens is significantly affected by strain and end face bulging. The skew efficiency of the non-planar ring cavity laser is 0.17, and the experimental results confirm the correctness of the crystal structure.
