Abstract:
According to the requirements of multi-target and pseudo-random coded laser semi-active terminal guidance, as well as the fast target ranging and other application environments, a hundred hertz and hundred millijoules all-solid-state nanosecond laser was designed to meet the requirements of integrated, miniaturized and practical prototype. Based on the modular time-sharing pump mode, the heat dissipation pressure of the unit volume laser working material and its pump source was effectively reduced. At the same time, the unstable laser resonator technology was adopted to improve the quality of the outgoing laser beam. Finally, the two resonant lasers were combined into one beam through polarization control to realize the output of a high beam quality hundred hertz and hundred millijoules nanosecond pulse laser. The weight of the integrated prototype is only 15.5 kg. At the operating frequency of 100 Hz, the average output laser energy is 112 mJ, the energy stability is better than 8%, the pulse width is 10.8 ns, and the beam quality reaches 11 mm·mrad. This results can basically meet the requirements of multi-target and pseudo-random coded laser semi-active terminal guidance and fast target ranging for laser source excitation.
