Abstract

In conclusion, we successfully demonstrated laser frequency stabilization of an adaptive self-phase-conjugated passively Q-switched laser by mean of the transmitting volume Bragg grating on the photo-thermo-refractive glass. Application of such grating inside the cavity provides desired pulse to pulse frequency stability and reduce bandwidth of the radiation from 18 to 4 pm with outstanding output parameters such as pulse energy of 100mJ, peak power of 10MWt and beam quality of M2=1.15. We assume that the key factor of wavelength stabilization in our case is angular selectivity of the grating. But this kind of selection operates only with feedback mirror. These results have shown that transmitting volume Bragg gratings on photo-thermo-refractive glass are great candidate for stabilization of pulsed laser systems.
