  1. 1. Tandem optical parametric oscillators using volume Bragg grating spectral control

    Författare :Markus Henriksson; Fredrik Laurell; Hiromasa Ito; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optical parametric oscillators; mid-infrared; volume Bragg gratings; PPKTP; ZGP; nonlinear optics; narrowband OPO; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes research on near degenerate quasi phase-matched opticalparametric oscillators (OPO) where volume Bragg gratings (VBG) are used toproduce narrow oscillation bandwidth. These OPOs are then used to pump a secondOPO to generate mid-infrared radiation. The atmospheric transmission windows in the 3. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Properties of Volume Bragg Gratings and Nonlinear Crystals for Laser Engineering

    Författare :Staffan Tjörnhammar; Fredrik Laurell; Valdas Pasiskevicius; Takunori Taira; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; volume Bragg grating; VBG; thermal effects; nonlinear optics; KTiOPO4; quasi-phase matching; photochromic damage; grey-tracking; color centers; blue-light induced infrared absorption; BLIIRA; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on two topics: thermal limitations of volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) employed as laser-cavity mirrors and formation of color centers in KTiOPO4 and its isomorphs.To explore the mechanisms of the thermal limitations of VBGs in high power lasers, I designed and constructed a diode-pumped, solid‑state laser with a VBG as cavity mirror that had a significantly higher absorption than what is typical.

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contains the results of research on the spectral control of lasers, specifically, the thermal limitations of volume Bragg gratings (VBGs), employed as laser-cavity end mirrors. The investigations consisted of both experiments and numerical simulations. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Spectral control of lasers and optical parametric oscillators with volume Bragg gratings

    Författare :Björn Jacobsson; Fredrik Laurell; Uwe Morgner; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; volume Bragg gratings; single-longitudinal-mode laser; laser tuning; erbium; neodymium; ytterbium; nonlinear optics; optical parametric oscillator; KTP; tunable optical parametric oscillator; narrowband optical parametric oscillator; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : I den här avhandlingen visas hur lasrar och optiska parametriska oscillatorer (OPO:er) kan styras spektralt med hjälp av volymbraggitter. Volymbraggitter utgörs av ett periodiskt varierande brytningsindex som skrivits i ett fototermorefraktivt glas. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Study on electroabsorption modulators and grating couplers for optical interconnects

    Författare :Yongbo Tang; Urban Westergren; Dries Van Thourhout; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photonic integrated circuit; optical interconnect; transmission line; traveling-wave; electro-absorption modulator; hybrid silicon evanescent platform; grating coupler; vertical coupling scheme; optical antenna; lag effect; polarization beam splitter; Photonics; Fotonik; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Decades of efforts have pushed the replacement of electrical interconnects by optical links to the interconnects between computers, racks and circuit boards. It may be expected that optical solutions will further be used for inter-chip and intra-chip interconnects with potential benefits in bandwidth, capacity, delay, power consumption and crosstalk.
