3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.3 E-O Q-SwitchThe basis of laser Q-switched technology is a special optical component - a fast intracavity optical switch generally called Q-switch. The Q value is an indicator for evaluating the quality of the optical resonant cavity. The higher the Q value, the lower the required pump threshold and the easier it is for the laser to oscillate. The purpose of laser Q-switching technology is to compress the pulse width and increase the peak power.
IntroductionLithium tantalate (LiTaO3, referred to as LT), as an excellent multifunctional crystal material, has good piezoelectric, electro-optical and pyroelectric properties, and is ideal for making surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters, resonators, tuners, Q switches and pyroelectric detectors. Devices made from LT crystal (www.wisoptic.com) are widely used in the automotive electronics, 5G communications and infrared detectors, and have broad market prospects.In 1965, Ballman used the pulling method to grow LT single crystal for the first time.
In 1962, the American scientist McClung F J reported for the first time that the silver mirror of the ruby laser resonator had hole burning damage, which was the first public report on the laser damage of optical components. The subsequent invention of Q-switching technology and mode-locking technology increased the peak power of laser pulses by several orders of magnitude. The problem of laser damage runs through and affects the design and operation of lasers, and promotes the development of optical materials and optical component manufacturing technologies.
3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.1 SAW Wave filterThere are many studies on filters in SAW devices. Wave filters have the advantages of low transmission loss, high reliability, great manufacturing flexibility, analog/digital compatibility, excellent frequency selection characteristics, and can realize a variety of complex functions.

Nanoscale laser damage precursorsDifferent from microscopic defects, defects are called precursors here. Defects generally refer to observable microstructures that are different from the characteristics of the surrounding matrix materials, and are often observed by optical microscopy. The precursors mentioned in this article generally cannot be directly observed by optical methods, and there is no obvious difference in characteristics from the surrounding matrix materials.
Experimental SetupIn order to obtain a 266 nm deep ultraviolet laser with high efficiency and stable operation, this paper built an all-solid-state 266 nm deep ultraviolet laser generation device as shown in Figure 1, which consists of a cavity-dumped all-solid-state Nd:YVO4 laser, a double-frequency system, and a quadruple-frequency system.Fig.
3.3 Laser pretreatment of dielectric film with large diameter Laser pretreatment technology is the last process before the supply of large-diameter components with dielectric film in NIF devices in the United States. LLNL provides their laser pretreatment device and specifications to each of their supplier of thin film components.
2.2 Theoretical inversion cognition of precursor characteristics through damage morphologyThe typical damage morphology of multilayer dielectric films with picosecond pulse in the fundamental frequency band is high-density and small-scale. In order to understand the destruction process, we designed a multi-layer dielectric film system with high fundamental frequency and high reflection, and used a 1064 nm 30 ps laser to conduct a destruction experiment. Figure 9 shows a typical damage morphology.
2.1 Manipulating and understanding laser damage precursors through material growth processesCombined with the statistical model, information such as precursor density and threshold distribution can be extracted from the damage probability curve, which indirectly reflects the information of the precursor. The analysis shows that the KDP crystal (www.wisoptic.com) mainly contains a precursor with a threshold distribution.
