估计是没有align好。 | b*****n
发帖数: 760 | 3 more details needed....
it is very likely due to the misalignment of the cavity
what is pulse width of YAG?
what is the upstate life time of the crystal?

发帖数: 2555 | 4 First, are you sure of your laser output? Is the laser output itself
stable enough? OPA is based on nonlinear effect, so 10% fluctuation in
laser pulse may lead to 100% fluctuation of your OPA output.
Second, what is your output wavelenth? 1550 nm is always more stable
than 1200 nm output, because of the nonlinear crystal used.
Third, what OPA you are using? OPA from Newport is not as good as
a former soviet union company (EKSPLA or something).
Last, alignment and protection. Even air flow has e

发帖数: 44 | 5 3X a lot, here are some details.I use 355nm laser from YAG laser as the pump
source, use BBO serve as the OPA nonlinear crystal. Single pulse has a
100ps pulse width.
The 355nm pump laser should has a 15% fluatation as our technichian said.
But how to measure the fluatation of the YAG laser and the OPA? Normally
what kind of powermeter should I use, and how long should I take the average
?
And for the non-uniformity, how to find the cause of the pheonormena?

发帖数: 2555 | 6 This is pretty standard ps-OPA set-up.
I would suggest you use a pulse energy meter (I am using one from Laser
Probe),
which can give you the average, standard variation, etc., of your pulse
energy. Those are useful information for OPA alignment.
Spatial non-uniformity is mostly due to miss-alignment. I would suggest
you first check your white super-continuum, it should be a co-centered
ring with different colors - and in most case you won't get that (I never
get that), but you should do the bes

应该相应有类似的powermeter可以测single pulse energy的。
