Development of a Broadly Tunable Mid-Infrared Laser Source for Highly Sensitive Multiple Trace Gas Detection

A room-temperature broadly tunable mid-infrared difference frequency laser source for highly sensitive trace gas detection has been developed recently in our laboratory. The mid-infrared laser system is based on quasi-phase-matched （QPM） difference frequency generation （DFG） in a multigrating, temperature-controlled periodically poled LiNbO3 （PPLN） crystal and employs two near-infrared diode lasers as pump sources. The mid-infrared coherent radiation generated is tunable from 3.2 μm to 3.7μm with an output power of about 100 μW. By changing one of the pump laser head with another wavelength range, we can readily obtain other needed mid-infrared wavelength range cover. The performance of the mid-infrared laser system and its application to highly sensitive spectroscopic detection of CH4, HCl, CH2O, and NO2 has been carried out. A multi-reflection White cell was used in the experiment gaining ppb-level sensitivity. The DFG laser system has the features of compact, room-temperature operation, narrow line-width, and broadly continuous tunable range for potential applications in industry and environmental monitoring.

Peculiar Photoconduction in Semi-Insulating GaAs Photoconductive Switch Triggered by 1064nm Laser Pulse

The peculiar photoconduction in semi-insulating GaAs photoconductive switch being triggered by 1064nm laser pulse is reported.The gap between two electrodes of the switch is 4mm.When it is triggered by laser pulse with energy of 0.8mJ and the pulse width of 5ns,and operated at biased electric field of 2.0 and 6.0kV／cm,both linear and nonlinear modes of the switch are observed respectively.Whereas the biased electric field adds to 9.5kV／cm,and the triggered laser is in range of 0.5～1.0mJ,the peculiar performed characteristic is observed:the switch gives a linear waveform firstly,and then after a delaytime of about 20～250ns,it outputs a nonlinear waveform again.The physical mechanism of this specific phenomenon is associated with the anti-sitedefects of semi-insulating GaAs and two-step-single-photon absorption.The delay time between linear waveform and nonlinear waveform is calculated,and the result matches the experiments.
