The present invention provides a blue laser transmitter operating at the H-beta Fraunhofer line at 486.13 nm wavelength. The subject blue laser is based on pulsed lasing action in thulium doped into lutetium sesquioxide (Tm:Lu.sub.2O.sub.3). The laser wavelength is restricted by volume

Bragg grating to the vicinity of 1944 nm wavelength. The laser is operated with a q-switch to generate high-energy pulses within the nanosecond regime. The output at the 1944 nm wavelength is then frequency quadrupled in a single pass through non-linear crystals to a wavelength near the center of the H-beta Fraunhofer line. The operation at the 1944 nm wavelength in Tm:Lu.sub.2O.sub.3 is very efficient because this wavelength is located on a shoulder of a substantially broad emission peak at 1945 nm. In addition, at the 1944 nm wavelength, Tm:Lu.sub.2O.sub.3 has only a modest saturation fluence of about 15 J/cm.sup.2, which allows for efficient energy extraction.

A laser system includes a laser diode that, upon activation, selectively produces a continuous wave of laser light or uniformly spaced, intermittent pulses of laser light. The system further includes a laser focuser with a plurality of lenses that focus the laser light produces by the laser diode and direct the laser light to an optical resonator. The optical resonator includes a lasing medium that, when intersected by the laser light from the laser diode, produces a beam of laser light with a wavelength that may be used for therapeutic treatment. The system is operable to produce the therapeutic laser light when the laser diode is operating in either the continuous wave mode or the pulsed mode, without moving components of the system relative to one another.

A broadband optical amplifier for operation in the 2 μm visible wavelength band is based upon a single-clad Tm-doped fiber amplifier (TDFA). A compact pump source uses a combination of low-power laser diode with a fiber laser to provide a multi-watt pump beam without needing to include thermal management and/or pump wavelength stability components. The broadband optical amplifier is therefore able to be relatively compact device with fiber coupled output powers of >0.5 W CW, high small signal gain, low noise figure, and large OSNR, important for use as a versatile wideband preamplifier or power booster amplifier.

A broadband optical amplifier for operation in the 2 μm visible wavelength band is based upon a single-clad Ho-doped fiber amplifier (HDFA). A compact pump source uses a combination of discrete laser diode with a fiber laser (which may be a dual-stage fiber laser) to create a pump output beam at a wavelength associated with creating gain in the presence of Ho ions (an exemplary pump wavelength being 1940 nm). The broadband optical amplifier may take the form of a single stage amplifier or a multi-stage amplifier, and may utilize a co-propagating pump and/or a counter-propagating pump arrangement.

A multi-stage thulium-doped (Tm-doped) fiber amplifiers (TDFA) is based on the use of single-clad Tm-doped optical fiber and includes a wavelength conditioning element to compensate for the nonuniform spectral response of the initial stage(s) prior to providing power boosting in the output stage. The wavelength conditioning element, which may comprise a gain shaping filter, exhibits a wavelength-dependent response that flattens the gain profile and output power distribution of the amplified signal prior to reaching the output stage of the multi-stage TDFA. The inclusion of the wavelength conditioning element allows the operating bandwidth of the amplifier to be extended so as to encompass a large portion of the eye-safe 2 μm wavelength region.
