  1. 1. Backward and Forward Nonlinear Optical Processes in Potassium Titanyl Phosphate

    Author : Kjell Martin Mølster; Fredrik Laurell; Valdas Pasiskevicius; Ulf L. Österberg; Stefano Taccheo; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; QPM; PPKTP; Nonlinear Optics; Backward second-harmonic; BWOPO; OPO; parametric devices; QPM; Ickelinär Optik; BWOPO; OPO; PPKTP; QPM; kvasifasematching; ikkelinæer optikk; bakovervendt parametrisk oscillator; optisk parametrisk oscillator; PPKTP; Optics and Photonics; Optik och fotonik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Second-order nonlinear optical processes generate radiation across a broad spectrum, including UV and the far-infrared. In this thesis, new light sources in the near(NIR) and mid infrared (MIR) using three-wave mixing geometries in periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate (PPKTP) is studied. READ MORE

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

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

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  3. 3. Laser Diagnostics in Reacting Flows

    Author : Panagiota Stamatoglou; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; planar laser-induced fluorescence PLIF ; gliding arc GA discharge; Plasma Discharges; Turbulence; Combustion Engines; Spectroscopy; high-speed camera HSC ; Burst System; OH-LIF; optical parametric oscillator OPO ; Fysicumarkivet A:2023:Stamatoglou;

    Abstract : Burst-mode laser systems have widely been employed in diagnostics for both reactive and non-reactive flows. Unlike the continuous pulse lasers, burst-mode lasers generate pulses in bursts lasting up to 100 ms, capable to deliver high energies up to Joules per pulse. READ MORE

  4. 4. Nanosecond tandem optical parametric oscillators for mid-infrared generation

    Author : Markus Henriksson; Fredrik Laurell; Gunnar Rustad; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nonlinear optics; optical parametric oscillators; quasi-phase matching; mid-infrared; linewidth narrowing; volume Bragg gratings.; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis discusses a new scheme for generating radiation in the mid infrared spectral region, especially the 3.5-5 µm range. The scheme uses established Nd3+-lasers at 1.06 µm and down conversion in nonlinear optical crystals. READ MORE

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

    Author : Björn Jacobsson; Fredrik Laurell; Uwe Morgner; KTH; []
