Title: | Sol-gel silica laser tunable in the blue | Authors: | Lam, KS Lo, D Wong, KH |
Issue Date: | 20-Jun-1995 | Source: | Applied optics, 20 June 1995, v. 34, no. 18, p. 3380-3383 | Abstract: | Doped and undoped silica slabs were fabricated through the use of the sol-gel technique. Extended UV transmission was observed for HCl-catalyzed sol-gel silica. Under transverse pumping with a XeCl laser, narrow-linewidth (<0.9-nm) laser oscillation from silica slabs doped with coumarin 460 (C460) was achieved in a grating—resonator cavity configured in the grazing-indicence geometry. Tuning of the C460-doped silica laser extended from 468 to 494 nm. The conversion efficiency of the narrow-linewidth blue laser was 5.5%. | Publisher: | Optical Society of America | Journal: | Applied optics | ISSN: | 0003-6935 | DOI: | 10.1364/AO.34.003380 | Rights: | © 1995 Optical Society of America.
