【摘要】 为了获得较窄增益带宽、较大光强的太赫兹辐射,尝试了利用TEACO2激光器对6 W可调谐连续波CO2种子激光实行双程光放大实验,以期望获得长脉冲、高峰值功率的抽运光.通过实验,获得了大约30倍的放大系数,放大光输出功率随种子光注入功率的增加而增加,其中10 P(20)支线表现更加突出,并且被放大的激光支线半峰全宽在14μs左右.基于这种长脉冲抽运源,建立了一种产生脉冲太赫兹的动力学模型,给出了产生太赫兹辐射的饱和抽运光强表达式,确定了抽运光的光强范围.另外,通过对动力学模型含时解的推导,得到了太赫兹增益介质吸收抽运光能量的表达式.分析表明:对于强抽运光,这种长脉冲激光可能更适合充当重分子太赫兹增益介质的抽运源;而对于较弱抽运光,几乎不能形成转动能级间的粒子数反转,因而无太赫兹辐射产生.

【Abstract】 To obtain narrower linewidth and more intense THz radiation,long-pulse and high-peak power optical pumping source is attempted by performing a light amplification experiment in which a 6 W tunable continuous-wave CO2 seeding laser is amplified by a double-pass amplifier with TEA CO2 laser.The result of an amplification factor of 30 at 14 μs pulse duration(FWHM) is obtained experimentally.During the amplification,the output power of the amplified light increases with that of seeding light increasing,especially for the CO2 10P(20)line.Based on the optical pumping source of long pulse laser,a dynamic model for generating pulsed THz radiation is established,and the expression of saturation pumping intensity which yields THz radiation is given,thus the range of pumping intensity can be determined.In addition,by solving time-dependent equation of dynamic model,the expression of pumping energy absorbed by THz medium is deduced.Theoretical analysis shows further that the heavy molecules will be more appropriate for THz gain medium for long pulse pumping source,and no THz radiation can be generated due to the absence of population reversion below pumping intensity.
