摘要: Wavelength selection and tuning of pulsed Ti:sapphire Nd:YAG lasers is realized, to the best our knowledge, for first time by subwavelength surface-relief fused-silica-transmission gratings (SG). High efficiency, high laser damage threshold, other advantages these are confirmed several intracavity experiments.
