As shown in above-mentioned formula (2), the intensity I of the laser beam 21 in efficiency eta and SHG crystal 111It is directly proportional.By making Beam effective diameter WeffIncrease, so that the degree of convergence of the laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 reduces, therefore efficiency eta drops It is low.In this way, mobile mechanism 30 is adjusted efficiency eta and keeping the position of beam waist 35 mobile.By to conversion Efficiency eta is adjusted, so that the intensity of the laser beam 22 projected from SHG crystal 11 be adjusted.In addition, in light-gathering optics system In the case that system 13 has multiple lens 15, mobile mechanism 30 can also be such that each lens 15 individually move.It is multiple to making below The variation for the situation that lens 15 individually move is described.
Fig. 4 is the 1st figure of the relationship of the temperature for indicating SHG crystal 11 shown in FIG. 1 and the intensity of laser beam 21,22,23. By the relationship of the temperature of graphical representation SHG crystal 11 and the intensity of laser beam 21,22,23 in Fig. 4.The horizontal axis of figure indicates The temperature of SHG crystal 11.The intensity of longitudinal axis expression laser beam 21,22,23.The intensity of laser beam 21,22 shown in Fig. 4 be from The intensity for the laser beam 21,22 that SHG crystal 11 projects.The intensity of laser beam 23 shown in Fig. 4 be projected from THG crystal 12 swash The intensity of light beam 23.
Beam effective diameter W is shown in FIG. 4effWhen for minimum value, i.e. the convergence journey of laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 Spend the relationship of the temperature and intensity in maximum situation.Here, as shown in Fig. 2, being in the position of z=L/2 in beam waist 35 When, beam effective diameter WeffFor minimum value.
When the temperature of SHG crystal 11 is Ta1, the intensity of the laser beam 22 projected from SHG crystal 11 is peak value.In SHG When the temperature of crystal 11 is near Ta1, the efficiency eta in SHG crystal 11 is high.Since efficiency eta is higher, in SHG crystalline substance More laser beams 21 is converted to laser beam 22 in body 11, therefore the strength reduction of the laser beam 21 projected from SHG crystal 11.
The set temperature of SHG crystal 11 is being set as Ta1, the actual temperature of SHG crystal 11 generates variation near Ta1 In the case of, the variation of the intensity of the laser beam 21,22 projected from SHG crystal 11 is smaller.Due to the laser injected to THG crystal 12 The variation of the intensity of beam 21,22 is small, therefore the variation of the intensity of the laser beam 23 projected from THG crystal 12 is also small.
In addition, in relationship shown in Fig. 4, when the temperature of SHG crystal 11 is Ta1, since SHG crystal 11 swashs majority Light beam 21 is converted to laser beam 22, therefore the laser beam 21 that can utilize of the generation of the laser beam 23 in THG crystal 12 is strong Degree is lower.Therefore, compared with intensity Pb1 when peak value, the intensity Pa1 drop of the laser beam 23 when the temperature of SHG crystal 11 is Ta1 It is low.In THG crystal 12, the intensity for the laser beam 21 that can be utilized by the generation of laser beam 23 is lower, laser beam 23 generation does not utilize and the intensity of remaining laser beam 22 is got higher.
In the temperature, that is, Tb1 lower than Ta11There is 1 peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 in place.At the peak value, laser beam 23 intensity is Pb1.In addition, in temperature, that is, Tb1 than Ta1 high2There is another 1 peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 in place.In Fig. 4 In laser beam 23 is shown the peak value of intensity be 2 examples.The peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 may also be more than 2.In this way, In beam effective diameter WeffIn the smallest situation, in the corresponding relationship of the intensity of the temperature and laser beam 23 of SHG crystal 11, Occurs the peak value of the intensity of multiple laser beams 23 at the temperature near Ta1.
The set temperature of SHG crystal 11 is being set as Tb11In the case where, with set temperature be Ta1 the case where variation phase Than the actual temperature of SHG crystal 11 is in Tb11The variation for nearby generating the intensity of the laser beam 21,22 when variation is big.Due to The variation of the intensity for the laser beam 21,22 injected to THG crystal 12 is big, therefore the laser beam 23 projected from THG crystal 12 is strong The variation of degree is also big.
The Wavelength converter 1 of embodiment 1 passes through movement in the initial stage of the adjusting of the beam diameter of laser beam 21 The position of lens 15 is adjusted in mechanism 30, so that beam effective diameter WeffAs minimum value.Mobile mechanism 30 as a result, Peak value to the intensity of the laser beam 23 in the corresponding relationship of the temperature of the intensity and SHG crystal 11 of laser beam 23 is multiple peak values State set.Mobile mechanism 30 from the state by keeping lens 15 mobile, to make the efficient beam in SHG crystal 11 Diameter WeffExpand.In addition, the adjusting in the initial stage is not limited to beam effective diameter WeffIt is set as the adjusting of minimum value.? In the adjusting of initial stage, the peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 can be set as the state of multiple peak values, can also will be had Imitate beam diameter WeffThe value being set as except minimum value.

In the case where the average output of pulsed laser light source 71 is certain, impulse hunting frequency is higher, each to swash from pulse The intensity of the laser beam 21 for the pulse that radiant 71 projects more reduces.It gets higher due to impulse hunting frequency, is penetrated to SHG crystal 11 In the case where the strength reduction of the laser beam 21 entered, the slave laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 becomes to the efficiency eta of laser beam 22 It is low.In addition, impulse hunting frequency is lower in the case where the average output of pulsed laser light source 71 is certain, it is each to swash from pulse The intensity of the laser beam 21 for the pulse that radiant 71 projects more increases.Due to impulse hunting frequencies go lower, penetrated to SHG crystal 11 In the raised situation of the intensity of the laser beam 21 entered, the slave laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 becomes to the efficiency eta of laser beam 22 It is high.
Here, in the case where certain value, that is, F1 is set as impulse hunting frequency, by sequence shown in Figure 13 to wavelength Conversion equipment 70 is adjusted.In the Wavelength converter 70 of the adjusting sequentially carried out according to shown in Figure 13, make Impulse hunting frequency is in the case where the change of the value than F1 high, that is, F2, and slave laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 is to laser beam 22 Efficiency eta is lower.Since efficiency eta is lower, maintaining the peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 is single peak value, but is had When laser beam 23 intensity maximum value ratio Pmax it is low.In this case, the laser beam exported sometimes from Wavelength converter 70 23 intensity is lower.
The case where i.e. F2 of value of F1 high of the Wavelength converter 70 when making impulse hunting frequency to than crossing de-regulation is changed Under, the efficiency eta in SHG crystal 11 can be adjusted again by sequence shown in Figure 13.Due to maintaining laser beam The peak value of 23 intensity is single peak value, therefore in adjusting again, can also skip step S11 shown in Figure 13 to step S14 implements the sequence from step S15.
On the other hand, in the Wavelength converter 70 of the adjusting sequentially carry out according to shown in Figure 13, make arteries and veins Frequency of oscillation is rushed in the case where lower than F1 value i.e. F3 change, the slave laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 turns to laser beam 22 Efficiency eta is changed to get higher.Since efficiency eta is got higher, the peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 is sometimes from single peak value to multiple Peak change.In this case, it due to the strength reduction of the laser beam 21 projected from SHG crystal 11, is produced by THG crystal 12 The intensity of raw laser beam 23 is lower.In addition, since the peak value of the intensity of laser beam 23 is multiple peak values, sometimes by SHG The variation of the intensity of laser beam 23 caused by the temperature change of crystal 11 is big.
Wavelength converter 70 is the case where changing impulse hunting frequency to the value i.e. F3 lower than F1 when crossing de-regulation Under, the efficiency eta in SHG crystal 11 can be adjusted again by sequence shown in Figure 13.Due to sometimes from laser beam The peak value of 23 intensity is single peak value to multiple peak changes, therefore in adjusting again, identically as embodiment 2, real Apply the sequence from step S11.
In this way, Wavelength converter 70 is in the case where changing impulse hunting frequency, by turning in SHG crystal 11 It changes efficiency eta to be adjusted again, high-intensitive laser beam 23 can be exported, and can reduce by the temperature change of SHG crystal 11 The variation of the intensity of caused laser beam 23.
In addition, mobile mechanism 70 can also substitute mobile mechanism 41, has mobile mechanism 30 shown in FIG. 1.In the situation Under, in Wavelength converter 70, the laser light source 10 in embodiment 1 shown in FIG. 1 is substituted, pulsed laser light source 71 is set With frequency controller 72.The structure and implementation except pulsed laser light source 71 and frequency controller 72 in Wavelength converter 70 Structure except the laser light source 10 in Wavelength converter 1 that mode 1 is related to is identical.
Unit, that is, mobile mechanism 30 is adjusted in the case where changing the frequency of outgoing laser beam 21, by moving lens 15 Dynamic, so that the slave laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11 be adjusted to the efficiency eta of laser beam 22, which is to make to swash The convergent optical element of light beam 21.Identically as embodiment 1, mobile mechanism 30 makes beam waist like that as shown in Figures 2 and 3 35 position is mobile, makes the beam effective diameter W of the laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11effVariation.As a result, mobile mechanism 30 to turn Efficiency eta is changed to be adjusted.
Identically as the variation of embodiment 1, mobile mechanism 30 can also make the i.e. multiple lens 15 of optical element individually Ground is mobile.In the example shown in Fig. 9, mobile mechanism 30 is in the condensing optical system 36 for having 3 lens 15A, 15B, 15C In, move each lens 15A, 15B, 15C individually.Mobile mechanism 30 is by making each lens 15A, 15B, 15C It individually moves, so as to expand and reduce the beam diameter in beam waist 35.Mobile mechanism 30 does not make beam waist 35 It is mobile, and make the beam effective diameter W of the laser beam 21 in SHG crystal 11effVariation.Mobile mechanism 30 is to transfer efficiency as a result, η is adjusted.
The Wavelength converter 50 of embodiment 3 is the case where changing the frequency of the Q-switch oscillation in Q-switch element 57 Under, can also be identical as the Wavelength converter 70 of embodiment 4 efficiency eta is adjusted again.Wavelength converter 50 adjusting unit, that is, mobile mechanism 41 or mobile mechanism 30 are in the case where changing the frequency of outgoing laser beam 21, to conversion Efficiency eta is adjusted.Wavelength converter 50 can export high-intensitive laser beam 23, and can reduce by SHG crystal 11 Temperature change caused by laser beam 23 intensity variation.
According to embodiment 4, Wavelength converter 70 passes through tune in the case where changing the frequency of outgoing laser beam 21 Efficiency eta is adjusted in section unit.Wavelength converter 70 can reduce by the way that efficiency eta is adjusted by SHG The variation of the intensity of laser beam 23 caused by the temperature change of crystal 11.In addition, Wavelength converter 70 can export high intensity Laser beam 23.The intensity that Wavelength converter 70 obtains the higher hamonic wave that can make output as a result, improves and stabilized effect Fruit.
