摘要: 为了研究横流气体激光器因谐振腔腔镜倾斜、中心热变形以及增益介质的横向流动而产生的非均匀增益对激光模场分布的影响,采用快速傅里叶变换算法模拟了高能CO2激光器的输出模场。结果表明,这些因素都会导致模场分布畸变。通过腔镜冷却、改善腔镜材料、增大反射率以及适当调节腔镜倾斜方向可改善非均匀增益对模场的影响。

Abstract: The fast Fourier transform method is used to study the mode field distribution for high-energy CO2 laser induced by the resonator mirror tilt,centre thermal distortion at the mirror and inhomogeneous gain resulting from transverse flow of gain medium.The simulation results indicate that all the above factors influence affect the mode field distribution.However the effect can be reduced by cooling resonator mirrors,adopting new mirror substrate materials,improving the reflective rate of mirror and arranging mirror tilt.
