LASERS MODULE


OptoSci's LASE module, an extension to ED-AMP, enables students to consolidate their knowledge and understanding of optical amplification and lasers through experimental investigation of the laser output as a function of the major design parameters.

The experimental investigation addresses:

  • Construction of a fibre ring laser
  • Measurement of lasing threshold
  • Laser dynamics: relaxation oscillations, excitation lifetime, laser onset time
  • Measurement of slope efficiency
  • Effect of intra-cavity loss on the slope efficiency and threshold
  • Influence of output coupling ratio on slope efficiency and threshold
