Herein, we report on the mathematical modelling and experimental study of the regime of nonsoliton mode locking in a laser based on the Yb3+:LuAlO3 (Yb:LuAP) crystal with longitudinal pumping by laser diode radiation. Simulation based on the Haus master equation permitted to determine the requirements for the parameters of a saturable absorber (SA), the level of the average output power, the size of the TEM00 mode of the cavity in the active element and on the gate to obtain a stable regime of generation of picosecond laser pulses. Laser experiments were carried out in a fourmirror X-shaped resonator using a semiconductor saturable mirror (SESAM) as a passive modulator and a laser diode with a fiber output of a maximum power up to 30 W at a wavelength of 978.5 nm as a pump source. We obtained a stable passive mode locking with a maximum average output power of up to 12 W and an ultrashort pulse duration of about 2 ps at an optical conversion efficiency of pump radiation into lasing radiation of about 38 %. Laser pulses were obtained at a central wavelength of about 999 nm with a minimum Stokes shift (about 2 %) with respect to the pump radiation, which significantly reduced the thermal load on the active element. Additionally, the preliminary results on the second harmonic generation and synchronous pumping of a parametric light generator using a Yb3+ : LuAlO3 crystal laser as a pump source are presented.

Abstract The amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) light source at 1 μm was used to excite Yb3+/Er3+ co-doped silica (YEDS) microspheres by evanescent-wave coupling through a taper optical fiber (TOF) to generate a stable 1550 nm laser. Inevitably, the experimental process was accompanied by a frequency up-conversion luminescence whose fluorescence spectrum was collected and analyzed. Pumped by the ASE light source with different power, the system of YEDS microsphere and TOF also generated single-mode laser and multi-longitudinal mode laser. Their peak wavelength, output power of the peak laser, full width at half maximum (FWHM), and side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) were respectively measured. Moreover, the characteristics of a 1550 nm whispering gallery mode (WGM) laser excited by a 1 μm ASE pumping and a tunable laser (TLS) pumping were compared under different variable conditions. It was demonstrated that the ASE pump source has polarization in all directions to excite WGMs in the microsphere cavity, which was different from and superior to the TLS. Therefore, the laser generated by the ASE pump source as an excitation source was not affected by vibration and temperature change. The results show that the 1550 nm laser pumped by ASE can stably output the microsphere WGM mode laser under the interference of vibration and temperature change, which is more suitable for the actual application environment.

The output flow pulsation characteristics of the hydraulic pump due to the structural characteristics may cause pump source fluid pressure pulsation and even cause the equipment to vibrate, which will affect the life and working reliability of the equipment. Scholars have done a lot of theoretical and simulation analysis on the characteristics of fluid flow and pressure pulsation caused by the specific structure and structure of the plunger pump, but there are few comparisons and analyses of the simplified model of the plunger pump and the pressure pulsation characteristics with experiments. In this paper, AMESim software is utilized to establish a simplified model of one seven-plunger hydraulic pump, and simulate and analyze the pump source fluid pressure pulsation characteristics of different system load pressures at a constant speed. An experimental platform for testing pump fluid pressure pulsation was designed and built, and the actual measurement and simulation results of pump fluid pressure pulsation were compared and analyzed. The results show that the system simulation data is in good agreement with the measured data, which verifies the correctness of the simplified model of the plunger pump. At the same time, it is found that the fluid pressure pulsation of the pump source exhibits broadband and multi-harmonic characteristics. At a constant speed, as the load pressure of the hydraulic system increases, the pump source fluid pressure pulsation amplitude increases, the pressure pulsation rate decreases, and the impact on the fundamental frequency amplitude is the most significant. The research results can provide a theoretical basis for suppressing the pressure pulsation of the pump source fluid and reducing the vibration response of a hydraulic pipeline under the action of the pulsating harmonic excitation.

The present study aims to determine the quality parameters of drinking water of rural Tharparkar i.e., Diplo area. The quality parameters examined in water samples were pH, TDS, and EC. A total of 20 samples were collected randomly from different sources of drinking water (dug well and hand pump water) from Diplo Sub District of Tharparkar. Results showed that water samples of hand pump source have elevated quality parameters (i.e., pH range was 5.7-6.0 and TDS range was 1579-2120mg/L) as compared to well water samples (i.e., pH range was 5.09-6.60 and TDS range was 497-1182mg/L). Therefore, it is concluded that as per guidelines of WHO and EPA, water from well sources is somehow good to ensure well-being of human population residing in the area. While water from the hand pump source is loaded with high TDS and EC (greater than WHO limit). The aforementioned parameter is highly linked with EC as well as pH. It is directly proportional to the conductivity and inversely proportional to the pH. Further, studies need to be conducted in this measure to evaluate quality of drinking water in rural areas of Sindh province.

In this paper, we present a high-energy, narrow pulse-width, long-wave infrared laser based on a ZnGeP2 (ZGP) optical parametric oscillator (OPO). The pump source is a 2.1 μm three -stage Ho:YAG master oscillator power-amplifier (MOPA). At a repetition frequency of 1 kHz, the Ho:YAG MOPA system outputs the maximal average power of 52.1 W, which corresponds to the shortest pulse width of 14.40 ns. By using the Ho:YAG MOPA system as the pump source, the maximal average output powers of 3.15 W at 8.2 μm and 11.4 W at 2.8 μm were achieved in a ZGP OPO. The peak wavelength and linewidth (FWHM) of the long-wave infrared laser were 8156 nm and 270 nm, respectively. At the maximal output level, the pulse width and beam quality factor M2 were measured to be 8.10 ns and 6.2, respectively.

AbstractBased on a hybrid pumping method consisting of a 1150 nm continuous-wave pump source and a 1950 nm pulsed pump source, we demonstrate a power controllable gain-switched fiber laser in dual wavebands at ~ 3 μm and ~ 2.1 μm. Different pumping schemes for pumping a Ho3+-doped ZBLAN fiber are studied. Using only the 1950 nm pulsed pump source, ~ 2.1 μm gain-switched pulses with single and double pulses are obtained separately at different pump powers. This phenomenon indicates that the 1950 nm pulsed pump source acts as a modulator to trigger different states of the ~ 2.1 μm pulses. Moreover, by fixing the 1150 nm pump power at 3.259 W and adjusting the 1950 nm pump power, the output power of the ~ 2.1 μm gain-switched pulsed laser is flexibly controlled while the ~ 3 μm laser power is almost unchanged, inducing the maximum output powers of 167.96 mW and 260.27 mW at 2910.16 nm and 2061.65 nm, respectively. These results suggest that the comparatively low power of the ~ 2.1 μm gain-switched pulsed laser in dual-waveband laser can be efficiently overcome by reasonably controlling the 1950 nm pump power.
