Abstract: A gain medium is disposed between two mirrors to form a resonant cavity. The cavity length is selected so that the gain bandwidth of the gain medium is less than or substantially equal to the frequency separation of the cavity modes and such that a cavity mode frequency falls within the gain bandwidth. A nonlinear optical material is disposed either inside or outside the cavity to generate new laser wavelengths. The nonlinear optical material may be contained in a cavity which is resonant at the microchip laser frequency. Alternatively, the microchip laser may be tuned, for example thermally or by the application of a longitudinal or transverse stress, to the frequency of the resonant cavity. The laser is optically pumped by any appropriate source such as a semiconductor injection laser or laser array. Suitable gain media include Nd:YAG, Nd:GSGG and Nd pentaphosphate, and suitable non-linear optical material include MqO:LiNbO.sub.3 and KTP.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an apparatus and a method for measuring a concentration of pollutants in water. A passive Q-switched fiber laser outputs an evanescent wave to a to-be-tested water sample after emitting a Q-switched pulse laser signal and transmitting it via an evanescent field fiber, and based on an evanescent wave change caused by an absorption effect of the pollutants in the to-be-tested water sample to the evanescent wave and an output repetition frequency change of the passive Q-switched fiber laser due to the evanescent wave change, outputs an output repetition frequency result of the passive Q-switched fiber laser. The method is simple; and the apparatus based on the method is simple in structure and low in cost.

Abstract: A device and method for tuning a ring resonator using self-heating stabilization is provided. A light source is controlled to produce an optical signal, input to an optical ring resonator, at a power where self-heating shifts a resonance wavelength of the optical ring resonator by at least 10 picometers, the self-heating comprising absorption in the optical ring resonator of optical power from a received optical signal. Prior to using the optical ring resonator at least one of modulate and filter the optical signal at the optical ring resonator, a heater of the optical ring resonator is controlled to an operating temperature at which the resonance wavelength of the optical ring resonator is greater than a respective wavelength of the optical signal.

Abstract: An optical system includes a laser cavity on a base. The laser cavity generates a light signal in response to application of an electrical current to the laser cavity. The system includes first electronics that apply a target level of the electrical current to the laser cavity so as to cause the laser cavity to generate the light signal. The light signal experiences mode hops at electrical current levels that shift to higher current levels in response to increasing laser operation times. A first one of the mode hops occurs at a first current level and a second one of the mode hops occurs at a second current level that is higher than the first current level. The system also includes a phase shifter that interacts with the laser cavity so as to shift the mode hops to lower current levels than occur in the absence of the phase shifter.
