Abstract

A laser illuminated projector system is configured with multiple Red, Green and Blue laser sources. The Green laser source has an all fiber master oscillator power amplifier configuration in which pump light is coupled into the output end of the fiber amplifier in a counter-propagation direction rendering the structure of the Green source and therefore projector system compact. The Green laser source is operative to emit signal light pulses at about 1064 nm wavelength with a pulse repetition reaching of up to about 3000 kHz, pulse duration between about a 100 fm to about 100 psec, an average power between 1.5 W to above 30 W, a peak power above 5 MW, a pulse energy exceeding 100 μJ and a beam quality parameter Mranging between 1.2 and 1.5. The thus configured Green laser source substantially reduces speckle otherwise visible on the laser illuminated screen.
