Development of a laser ion source at IGISOL
2005
FURIOS, the Fast Universal laser IOn Source, is under development at the IGISOL (Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line) mass separator facility in Jyvaskyla, Finland. This new laser ion source will combine a state-of-the-art solid state laser system together with a dye laser system, for the selective and efficient production of exotic radioactive species without compromising the universality and fast release inherent in the IGISOL system. The motivation for, and development of, this ion source is discussed in relation to the programme of research ongoing at this mass separator facility.
Electric field induced hyperfine level-crossings in (nD)Cs at two-step laser excitation: experiment and theory
2005
The pure electric field level-crossing of m_F Zeeman sublevels of hyperfine F levels at two-step laser excitation was described theoretically and studied experimentally for the nD_3/2 states in Cs with n = 7,9, and 10, by applying a diode laser in the first 6S_1/2 to 6P_3/2 step and a diode or dye laser for the second 6P_3/2 to nD_3/2 step. Level-crossing resonance signals were observed in the nD_3/2 to 6P_1/2 fluorescence. A theoretical model was developed to describe quantitatively the resonance signals by correlation analysis of the optical Bloch equations in the case when an atom simultaneously interacts with two laser fields in the presence of an external dc electric field. The simulat…
Vibrational and rotational collisional relaxation in CO2–Ar and CO2–He mixtures studied by stimulated Raman-infrared double resonance
1999
0021-9606; The collisional relaxation among vibrational levels of the Fermi dyad of CO2 mixed with Ar and He (10% CO2, 90% rare gas) has been studied at room temperature with a double resonance experiment. Stimulated Raman effect from the ground state achieved the pumping process with a Nd:YAG laser and a pulse amplified dye laser. After pumping the v(1) or 2v(2)(Sigma(+)g) level, a cw CO2 laser was used to probe either the depopulation rates of the pumped levels (vibrationally or rotationally resolved) or the energy transfer rates to neighboring states. The vibrational energy relaxation has been studied from experimental depopulation of v(1) and population of 2v(2) levels through a five-le…
A complementary laser system for ISOLDE RILIS
2011
The Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source (RILIS) is a powerful tool for efficient and selective production of radioactive ion beams at Isotope Separator On Line (ISOL) facilities. To avoid isobaric background, highly selective stepwise resonant ionization is applied, using up to three different laser wavelengths. Due to their advantages in terms of stability and reliability, an all solid-state titanium:sapphire (Ti:Sa) system is used or is planned to be installed at the majority of on-line facilities worldwide. Such an all solid-state Ti:Sa laser system is going to be installed at the ISOLDE RILIS at CERN alongside the well-established dye laser system.
Random Lasing of Rhodamine 6G Solution Containing TiO2:Silica Core:Shell Nanoparticles
2012
High efficiency and low rate of photodegradation was obtained in a random laser suspending TiO2@Silica nanoparticles in ethanol solution of Rhodamine 6G. The TiO2 nanoparticles were coated with a silica shell prepared via Stober method.
Several Derivatives of 6-(Tert-Butyl)-4H-Pyran-4-Ylidene Malononitrile with Different Amorphous Phase Promoting Substituents for Light-Amplification …
2019
A series of glassy 6-(tert-butyl)-4H-pyran-4-ylidene malononitrile (DCM) derivatives with covalently attached amorphous state promoting bulky 1,1,1-triphenylmethyl (trityl) moieties through several chemical design approaches have been synthesized and investigated for suitability in organic solid state laser applications. Results showed that the bonding type of such functional groups had a considerable influence on glass structure forming dye thermal properties and a slight influence on their optical properties. Thermal stability up to 346 °C was achieved with glass transitions in the range from 39 to 138 °C. Incorporation of bulky triphenyl substituents via ester groups showed remarkable am…
Glass-forming non-symmetric bis-styryl-DWK-type dyes for infra-red radiation amplification systems
2019
Abstract A series of D-π-A type organic dyes with bulky triphenylmethyl moiety containing 2,6-bis-(4-substituted)styryl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene donor (D) fragments and different electron acceptors (A) were synthesized and investigated, mostly for potential applications in organic solid-state lasers as infra-red (IR) radiation amplification medium. Dye glass transition temperature is above 99 °C with thermal stability in the region from 173 °C to 326 °C which was slightly influenced by the electron acceptor fragment attached to the 4H-pyrane ring in 4-position. Introducing substituents in 4-position within one of the styryl-fragments with stronger electron withdrawing properties decreased ASE exc…

4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl- 6-(p-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran ( DCM ) is well known red laser dye which can be used also in solid state organic lasers.

Solid state solvation effect and reduced amplified spontaneous emission threshold value of glass forming DCM derivative in PMMA films
2015
Abstract Molecule crystallization is one of the limitations for obtaining high-gain organic laser systems. One of the examples is well known red laser dye 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(p-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM). The lowest threshold value of amplified spontaneous emission was achieved by doping 2 wt% of DCM molecule in tris-(8-hydroxy quinoline) aluminum (Alq3) matrix. Further increase of the DCM dye concentration makes the system less efficient as its threshold value increases. It is due to large intermolecular interaction, which induces photoluminescence quenching. Compounds with reduced intermolecular interaction could be prospective in organic laser systems due to higher …
