英文摘要The technology and applications of miniature, high-efficiency blue-green lasers on laser display, material processing and medical treatments have broad prospective. Comparing with traditional solid lasers, fiber lasers has outstanding superiority in efficiency, volume, expense and so on. Combing advantages of fibers laser with nonlinear frequency conversion technology can produce blue-green lasers with high quality and high power, which have become one of the research focuses in solid laser research fields at present. In this dissertation, related pivotal technology of high-peak-power fiber laser is firstly discussed; then sub-nanosecond fiber amplifier and properties of frequency doubling is experimentally studied. Finally, we study on three-level Yb-doped fiber laser and its second harmonic generation. The main contents are as follows: In the first chapter, Yb-doped fiber laser properties are introduced; then three methods of obtaining pulsed fiber laser are listed, and it is emphasis on latest progresses and development trends of fiber master-oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system. Moreover, the latest progresses and development trends of obtaining visible lasers using single-pass frequency doubling technology, external-cavity frequency doubling technology and intracavity frequency doubling technology are also reviewed. In the second chapter, the pivotal technology of high-peak-power fiber laser is studied by both theory analysis and experimental research. Based on the virtue of laser power transmission equations and the physical model of Yb-doped fiber amplifier, energy storage property of fiber is analyzed. The methods to suppress amplified spontaneous emission (ASE), increase extracted energy are considered. Furthermore, nonlinear effects that are prone to high-peak-power fiber laser and amplifier are introduced and analyzed. A fiber amplifier is designed and built to study how ASE and nonlinear effects would affect the output spectrum. End face treatment of fibers is also introduced, which provides technical means to suppress ASE and nonlinear effects. At last, we apply endcap to our MOPA system on high peak power, and avoid ASE and nonlinear successfully. In the third chapter, sub-nanosecond Yb-doped fiber amplifier and its second harmonic generation characteristics are studied. A Q-switched laser is used to seed a one stage amplifier featuring backward pumped Yb-doped double-clad fiber as the power amplifier. Average power of maximum 5.5W with repetition rate of 9kHz is achieved,corresponding to pulse duration of 570ps,peak power of 1MW. Based on the fiber amplifier,1.3W green laser is obtained by single-pass frequency doubling using non-critical phase matching LBO crystal at 150.5℃,and its peak power reaches 250kW,conversion efficiency is 48%. In the fourth chapter, 976nm three-level Yb-doped fiber laser and second harmonic generation technique are explored. Basic principal and approaches to three-level Yb-doped fiber laser are analyzed. Rod-type photonic crystal fiber is used as gain medium, a three-level Q-switched fiber laser based on acoustic-optic Q-switched modulator is designed. Pulses of 2.7W average power, 25kHz repetition rate and 14ns pulse duration are obtained. Based on the fiber oscillator, 976nm fiber laser frequency doubling is explored. Type Ⅰ phase matching to BBO is achieved, and the maximum output power at 488nm is 270mW. At last,the method to lift conversion efficiency at 976nm is discussed.
