Description

The hybrid superelevation peak power of CPA, CPRA and OPCPA laser pulse amplifying device
Technical field
The present invention relates to superelevation peak power laser pulse amplifying device, particularly the hybrid superelevation peak power of a kind of CPA, CPRA and OPCPA laser pulse amplifying device.Described CPA is the abbreviation that chirped pulse amplifies, and described CPRA is the abbreviation that the chirped pulse Raman amplifies, and described OPCPA is the abbreviation that the optical parameter chirped pulse amplifies, described superelevation peak power refer to the peak power of laser reach number clap watt (1 clap watt=10 15W) more than.
Background technology
Since the 80s and 90s in last century, the mankind that develop into that chirped pulse amplifies (being designated hereinafter simply as CPA) and optical parameter chirped pulse amplification (being designated hereinafter simply as OPCPA) successfully provide pulse duration to reach femtosecond magnitude (10 -15S), peak power reaches and claps watts (10 15W) ultra-intense ultra-short laser pulse of magnitude.The focus strength of ultra-intense ultra-short laser pulse surpasses 10 at present 18W/cm 2, and the highest focus strength can reach 10 22W/cm 2So high focus strength greatly can have been expanded the application of the high field science in the theory of relativity category, has promoted the development of a series of research fields such as generation of generation, the theory of relativity self focusing, high energy electron and proton acceleration, neutron and the positron of generation, r ray such as the x ray.
When the laser focus strength further is promoted to super the theory of relativity light intensity (greater than 10 23W/cm 2), the high field science will further be advanced to superpower brand-new category, thereby open up the new direction in new forward position of a series of superpower ultrafast science.Particularly physical vacuum, dark energy and dark matter, high field high-energy-density physics, explore some basic science problems that correlated strategy high-tech sector that miniaturization superelevation gradient particle accelerates ultra-intense laser field such as new principle, desk-topization high brightness X ray and matter interaction relates to.At present, a plurality of research institutions are all competitively developing and are developing superelevation peak power fs-laser system in the world, and target is based on that number is clapped watt even 10 claps the femtosecond laser device of watt peak powers, realizes greater than 10 23W/cm 2The laser focus strength.Wherein representative two is respectively the Vulcan10PW laser aid presided over by Britain Rutherford experiment chamber and the ELI laser aid of and investment leading by European Union at the superelevation peak power femtosecond laser device of building.
These two superelevation peak power femtosecond laser devices have adopted different laser pulses to amplify scheme.Wherein the Vulcan10PW device is to adopt pure OPCPA basically, and its terminal amplifier intends adopting the parameter chirped pulse based on heavy caliber potassium dideuterium phosphate (DKDP) nonlinear crystal to amplify (OPCPA); And the ELI laser aid, though its front end has adopted OPCPA, its main amplifier, especially terminal amplifier then are the CPA that intends adopting based on heavy caliber titanium jewel.
The basic principle of CPA is to be the chirped pulse of hundreds of psecs even nanosecond order with the mode locking pulse broadening of femtosecond magnitude before amplification, carries out pulse compression again after amplifying step by step, thereby obtains the laser pulse of high-peak power, short pulse width.And the different of OPCPA and CPA maximum are exactly the amplifying stage among the CPA to be replaced with the nonlinear optical parameter amplify.These two kinds of technology respectively have strengths and weaknesses by comparison: the CPA technology maturation, energy stability and pointing stability are better in the amplification process, and the requirement of pumped laser system is lower than the OPCPA technology, and be simple relatively based on its operation of laser aid of CPA technology.OPCPA, energy stability, pointing stability relatively poor relatively, and need the pumped laser system of the single longitudinal mode of certain pulses width usually, will be more complicated relatively based on its operation of laser aid of OPCPA therefore.But OPCPA has higher gain by one path, littler thermal effect, bigger gain bandwidth, can support narrower femto-second laser pulse.
Based on existing engineering condition, especially in the terminal amplifier of superelevation peak power femtosecond laser device, OPCPA compares the feasibility that CPA has more enforcement.Because, the CPA of the very difficult support 10 bat watt magnitudes of the titanium gem crystal size that can realize at present (be difficult to reach~200mm bore).And based on large-sized titanium jewel like this, because the crystal lateral dimension is more than the several times of logical optical thickness, parasitic oscillation suppresses to become a crucial difficult problem, and the parasitic oscillation effect in the laser amplification process can cause final amplification efficient and seriously influence.And for OPCPA, though the complexity of its pumped laser system is bigger, but the size of the potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal that it is required (can greater than the 200mm bore) is enough to support that 10 clap the OPCPA of watt magnitudes, and the gain by one path height of OPCPA, does not have parasitic oscillation and influence of thermal effect.Therefore, terminal amplifier adopts the OPCPA technology should have more exploitativeness.
The present design of Vulcan10PW laser aid is (referring to C Hernandez-Gomez, S P Blake, etc.Journal of Physics:ConferenceSeries244 (2010) 032006) as shown in Figure 1.Broadband seed pulse by the 900nm wave band of OPCPA amplifying stage 1 output of millijoule magnitude enters into stretcher 2, seed pulse is broadened to be injected into first order LBO OPCPA prime amplifier (3) to~3ns and second level LBO OPCPA prevents big device 4, and OPCPA prime amplifier 3 and 4 is that the pump laser 5 of 4J carries out pumping by energy.The energy of OPCPA prime amplifier output is that to be injected into two-stage be that 600J, wavelength are that the high energy OPCPA pumping source 8 of 527nm carries out pumping by the two-way energy respectively based on the OPCPA terminal amplifier 6 of DKDP nonlinear crystal and 7, OPCPA terminal amplifier to the seed pulse of 1J magnitude.Be that the amplification pulse of 500J magnitude is injected into vacuum compression device 9 after expanding by the energy of OPCPA terminal amplifier output, the peak power of the final output in compression back 300J/30fs is the femto-second laser pulse of 10PW.
The terminal amplifier of this design has adopted the potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal.This is because have only the growth size of potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal and potassium dihydrogen phosphate crystal can support the OPCPA of superelevation peak power to amplify at present, and the gain spectrum width of potassium dihydrogen phosphate crystal is less than the potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate crystal is less than the potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal in the transmitance of region of ultra-red.Therefore the potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal is the optimal selection that realizes that broadband OPCPA high energy amplifies at present.The optical maser wavelength of this design is chosen in 900nm, and this is that gain characteristic by potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal under the present wavelength (normally 527nm) that can support the high energy pumping source that the superelevation peak power is amplified and this pumping wavelength determines.The potassium dideuterium phosphate crystal is wide more much bigger than the gain spectral of 800nm wave band at the gain spectrum width of 900nm wave band.
This scheme has adopted pure OPCPA technology to carry out the laser pulse amplification, although have the potentiality that realize 10PW magnitude superelevation peak power, the complexity of the energy stability of laser aid, pointing stability and system's operation maintenance will cause bigger influence to the overall performance of laser aid.
