Laser-induced anti-Stokes fluorescence cooling of ytterbium-doped silica glass by more than 6 Kelvin
Mostafa Peysokhan, Saeid Rostami, Esmaeil Mobini +12
Laser cooling of a solid is achieved when a coherent laser illuminates the material, and the heat is extracted by resulting anti-Stokes fluorescence. Over the past year, net solid-…
Tm-doped Crystals for mid-IR Optical Cryocoolers and Radiation Balanced Lasers
Saeid Rostami, Alexander R. Albrecht, Azzurra Volpi +3
We report the complete characterization of various cooling grade Tm-doped crystals including the first demonstration of optical refrigeration in Tm:YLF crystals. Room temperature l…
Gain-Embedded Meta Mirrors for Optically Pumped Semiconductor Disk Lasers
Zhou Yang, David Lidsky, Mansoor Sheik-Bahae
We propose and analyze an active mirror structure that uses a subwavelength grating reflector combined with optical gain. The structure is designed to be directly bonded to a therm…
Observation of Optical Refrigeration in a Holmium-doped Crystal
Saeid Rostami, Alexander R Albrecht, Azzurra Volpi +1
We report the first demonstration of solid-state optical refrigeration of a Ho-doped material. A 1 mol% Ho-doped Yttrium Lithium Fluoride (YLF) crystal is cooled by mid-IR laser ra…
