Gain medium
Gain medium (i.e., laser functioning substance) refers to the material system utilized to understand the particle number inversion as well as generate the promoted radiation amplification impact of light. In some cases likewise referred to as laser gain medium, they can be strong (crystal, glass), gaseous (atomic gas, ionic gas, molecular gas), semiconductor, fluid, and also various other media. The primary requirement of the laser functioning product is to accomplish a large level of particle number inversion between certain energy degrees of the functioning bits and to maintain this inversion as successfully as feasible throughout the whole laser exhaust procedure. To this end, it is called for that the working compound have an ideal power level framework and also change characteristics.
Classification of laser gain media
All lasers can be separated into the complying with classifications according to the different state of the functioning material:
- Strong (crystal and also glass) laser, the functioning product utilized by this type of laser, is made by mixing steel ions which can create stimulated radiation into the crystal or glass matrix to develop the luminescence center;
- Gas lasers, they utilize the functioning material is gas, and also according to the gas truly generated by the excitation of the functioning fragment residential properties of the various, and also additionally split right into atomic gas laser, ion gas laser, molecular gas laser, excimer gas laser, and so on;
- Liquid laser, this sort of laser made use of by the working substances mostly consist of two kinds, one is organic fluorescent dye service, the various other is containing rare earth metal ions of not natural compound option, steel ions (such as Nd) play the duty of working bits, and also not natural substance fluid (such as SeOCl) plays the duty of matrix;
- Semiconductor laser, this kind of laser is a particular semiconductor product as the working compound to create promoted discharge, its principle is through a particular excitation method (electric injection, optical pump or high-energy electron beam of light injection), between the semiconductor material energy band or in between the energy band and also the pollutant level, with the excitation of non-equilibrium service provider to attain the particle number reversal. Therefore, boosted discharge of light is created;
- Free electron laser, which is an unique type of new laser, the working material is the directional complimentary electron beam of light relocating at high speed in the space periodic adjustment of magnetic field, as long as the rate of the free electron light beam can be altered to produce a tunable systematic electromagnetic radiation, in principle, the coherent radiation range can change from the X-ray band to the microwave region, so it has a really appealing possibility.
