The laser 12 comprises a fiber laser, a solid laser and a semiconductor laser, and the two-way output end of the power supply 11 is respectively connected with the driving input end of the laser 12.
The power supply 11 has a two-way output end, and can realize two-way output. Specifically, the power supply 11 may be a digital circuit power supply 11. The driver (not shown in the figure) is arranged in the power supply 11, the two-way output of the power supply 11 is realized through the driver, the driver is electrically connected with the laser 12 to receive the signal sent by the laser 12, and drives one output end of the power supply 11 to output pre-pumping pulse current OA3 or bias current OA2 according to the signal, the other output end outputs pumping pulse current OA, and the two output ends output simultaneously, so that the laser 12 receives two current signals synchronously, which is equivalent to the superposition of the two current signals received by the laser 12.
One requirement for the laser 12 to lase is to produce a sufficient population inversion distribution, i.e., the population in the high-energy state is sufficiently greater than the population in the low-energy state; a certain threshold condition is satisfied such that the photon gain is equal to or greater than the photon loss. Therefore, the pre-starting current of the laser 12 is used for pumping the inversion particle number of the laser 12 to the threshold value within the preset time, which is understood that the pre-starting current increases the speed of pumping the inversion particle number to the threshold value in a carrier injection manner, and the laser 12 is accelerated to start emitting laser.
The implementation manner of pumping the reversed population to the threshold is to add one output bias current OA2 or pre-pump pulse current OA3 on the basis that the conventional power supply 11 outputs one pump pulse, output the pre-pump pulse current OA3 or bias current OA2 through one output of the power supply 11, and output the pump pulse current OA through the other output at the same time, so that the reversed population is pumped to the vicinity of the light emitting threshold before the laser 12 emits light, the laser establishing time can be shortened, the response time of the laser is prolonged, and the response time difference between different power sections is reduced.

The following is discussed in two embodiments:
example one
As shown in fig. 1, the bias current OA2 is increased based on the pumping pulse current OA output from the conventional power supply 11. The bias current OA2 output by the output terminal of the power supply 11 is between 0.4A and 2A.
As shown in fig. 2, the pumping driving current starts from the original pumping pulse current OA to the working state pumping current OA1, and starts from the bias current OA2, and the laser 12 starts to be powered on, i.e., works at the bias current OA 2. Therefore, the number of inversion particles in the laser resonant cavity is kept near the threshold value and is in a 'Ready' state, and once the drive output current rises, laser pulses can be rapidly output. The bias current OA2 is typically set at a point above the pump threshold current, typically 0.4A to 1A; the bias current OA2 for a particular pump source may be 0.4A to 2A. The simulation results of the response times of the different power segments are shown in fig. 2.
Example two

One path of the power supply 11 outputs a pre-pumping pulse current OA3, and the pre-pumping pulse current OA3 is the rated current of the pump source of the laser 12.
As shown in fig. 4, a pre-pump pulse current OA3 is added before the actual current pulse to allow the high-power pump light to quickly establish the resonant cavity inversion population, and then the current value is reduced to the required power; the pre-pumping pulse current OA3 is generally the rated current of the pump source, such as 10A-14A, and the pre-pumping pulse current OA3 of the special pump source can also reach 14A-20A; the pre-pump pulse width is typically taken to be 1us to 20 us.
