In order to study the optical clearing effect on reducing the skin scattering and increasing the laser energy reaching the target vessel, a quantitative study on the optical clearing effect of glycerol on the skin tissue phantom was conducted in the visible to infrared wavelength band. An in vitro experimental system for laser treatment of port wine stain was set up to obtain quantitative relationship between optical clearing effect and the blood coagulation properties under the irradiation of multi-pulse Nd∶YAG laser. The results show that the diffuse reflectance of the skin tissue phantom decreases by 36.69% and the transmittance increases by 38.73% at 1064 nm after 0.5 mL anhydrous glycerol is applied on the skin phantom surface for 10 min. After 0.5 mL anhydrous glycerol is applied on the skin tissue phantom surface for 4 min, the number of laser pulses required for blood coagulation decreases by 25%. After application for 10 min, the number of laser pulses required for blood coagulation does not decrease further, but the blood coagulation area increases by 34.1% compared with that after 4 min. The results indicate that glycerol is effective to improve the laser treatment of port wine stain by increasing the laser energy reaching the target vessel.

Factors such as high gain and spectral width of pump laser will significantly broaden the output parametric spectra of optical parametric oscillators (OPO). Etalons, gratings and other components are usually used to control the spectral width, however, loss will be imported, and thus the output threshold of lasers will increase and the conversion efficiency and the output power will decrease. A scheme for obtaining mid-infrared laser with narrow spectral width and high power is reported, in which the spectral width compression components are not used. The proposed scheme obtains narrow spectral width and high power respectively. A narrow-spectral-width pump source with a 1.064 μm NdYAG main oscillator power amplifier (OPA) structure is built. By adjusting the power and the diameter of the pump light spot in PPMgLN crystal of the optical parametric oscillator, we can control the gain intensity in the crystal and the spectral width of mid-infrared laser. In the optical parametric oscillator, when the pump power is about three times of the threshold, 0.7 W, 2.9 μm seed laser with spectral width less than 1.12 nm is obtained. The seed light is amplified through two optical parametric amplifiers, and 6.27 W, 2.9 μm laser output is finally obtained, when the light conversion efficiency is 15.7% and the spectral width remains unchanged.

An all-solid-state doubly resonant intracavity sum-frequency continuous-wave 578 nm yellow laser with KTP type Ⅱ phase matching is studied. Two kinds of gain media, YbYAG and NdYAG, are used to generate spectral lines of the fundamental frequency at 1030 nm and 1319 nm. The 578 nm yellow laser output is achieved by intracavity sum-frequency with KTP type Ⅱ critical phase matching. It is found in the experiment that besides the output of the yellow laser at 578 nm, an output of sum-frequency yellow laser at 582 nm is found at the same time. By spectral analysis, the phenomena are ascribed to the oscillation of 1338 nm from the transition of R2→X3 in NdYAG crystal and the sum-frequency generation (SFG) between the wavelengths of 1030 nm and 1338 nm. When the pump powers of YbYAG and NdYAG are 10.3 W and 3.7 W respectively, the yellow laser with the output power of 55 mW is obtained. The power stability of the output laser is better than 4.7% within 30 min. By using a Glan prism, the polarization characteristics of the fundamental frequency light and the sum-frequency light are measured. The results show that for the two isotropic laser crystals, both the resonator structure and the azimuth angle of the SFG crystal have influence on the polarization characteristics of the corresponding fundamental frequency light, and both of them can change the polarization direction of the fundamental frequency light to the direction which benefits to the sum-frequency process.

Samples of metal-dielectric multilayer films are post-annealed at different temperatures. It is experimentally found that at the annealing temperature of 350 ℃, a transition layer between Au layer and SiO2 layer of the samples occurs, and these samples possess the strong anti-chemical-cleaning ability. Based on the investigation by a transmission electron microscope and the analysis by an energy dispersive spectrometer, it is found that the occurrence of transition layers is mainly the result of Cr atoms diffusing from the Au bottom layer to the SiO2 layer. The transition layer can enhance the adhesion between the Au layer and SiO2 layer and block the infiltration of acid solutions, thus the anti-chemical-cleaning ability of metal-dielectric multilayer films is enhanced.

We designed and fabricated guided-mode resonance filters (GMRFs) with a wedged waveguide layer, and analyzed their spectral characteristics. GMRF was etched for several times with the ion-beam etching technique and a triangle-shaped mask to obtain a wedged waveguide layer. The lines of photoresist gratings and thickness variation direction of the wedge-shaped waveguide layer are either parallel or perpendicular to each other. The experimental results show that the relationship between the resonance peak wavelength and position on the filter is approximately linear for the two samples. The half width at maximum in the case that the grating lines are parallel to the thickness variation direction of the wedge-shaped waveguide layer is larger than that in the case that the grating lines are perpendicular to the thickness variation direction. Through a linear gradation in the thickness of the Ta2O5 film across a distance of 20 mm, the spectral location of the reflection peaks was found to vary nearly linearly across the spectral range of 1560-1600 nm.
