    Temperature-dependent fluorescence in chromium-doped forsterite (Cr(4+):forsterite) significantly limits continuous-wave laser output power. Understanding this thermal effect is crucial for designing high-power Cr(4+):forsterite lasers.

    Area of Science:

    • Solid-state laser physics
    • Materials science
    • Quantum optics

    Background:

    • Chromium-doped forsterite (Cr(4+):forsterite) is a tunable solid-state laser medium operating in the near-infrared.
    • Continuous-wave (CW) laser performance is often limited by thermal effects within the gain medium.
    • Understanding the interplay between pump power, temperature, and luminescence is essential for optimizing laser design.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the temperature and pump power dependence of infrared luminescence in Cr(4+):forsterite.
    • To identify the primary cause of output power saturation in CW Cr(4+):forsterite lasers.
    • To provide guidelines for the development of high-power CW Cr(4+):forsterite lasers.

    Main Methods:

    • Experimental measurement of infrared luminescence spectra.

  • Analysis of luminescence as a function of crystal temperature.
  • Correlation of luminescence behavior with varying pump power intensities.
  • Main Results:

    • Temperature-dependent fluorescence was identified as the dominant factor limiting CW laser output power.
    • Significant temperature rise within the Cr(4+):forsterite crystal at higher pump intensities was observed.
    • External cooling proved insufficient to mitigate the performance reduction caused by internal heating.

    Conclusions:

    • Thermal effects, specifically temperature-dependent fluorescence, are the primary bottleneck for high-power CW operation in Cr(4+):forsterite lasers.
    • Effective thermal management strategies are critical for achieving high output power.
    • These findings offer essential insights for the engineering of advanced Cr(4+):forsterite laser systems.
