Abstract

Amplified pulsed laser beam with narrow linewidth was generated from CW laser beam with narrow linewidth by using frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser beam and Bethune cell. The degree of the frequency chirping of the amplified pulse laser was measured by using the heterodyne method and obtained by calculating instantaneous phase change from heterodyne beating signals. The frequency chirping of amplified pulsed laser beam from CW laser beam with sub-MHz linewidth by 10 ns pulse was 80 MHz so that pulsed laser beam with very narrow linewidth was obtained.

좁은 선폭을 갖는 연속 레이저 빔이 제이조화된 Nd:YAG레이저빔과 Bethune셀을 사용하여 좁은 선폭을 갖는 펄스 레이저빔이 생성되었다. 증폭된 펄스빔의 주파수 chirping정도는 헤테로다인 방법을 이용하여 측정되었으며, 헤테로다인 맥놀이신호로부터 순간적인 위상 변화량을 추출함으로서 분석되었다. 10 ns 펄스에 의해 MHz 이하의 선폭을 가지는 연속 레이저빔으로부터 증폭된 주파수 chirping은 80MHz정도로 매우 좁은 선폭의 증폭된 펄스 레이저빔이 얻어졌다.
