ABSTRACTThe historical monuments such as cathedrals, public buildings and so on, are a fundamental part of artistic heritage of a country. They reflect, ultimately, much of its culture and history. For several decades, their aspect has been seriously changed by graffiti, which clearly endangers their preservation state and causes loss of their esthetic appearance and historic value. This damages seriously the self-esteem of residents who witness the continued and strong degradation of their cultural heritage. The aim of this work is to study the removal of graffiti from a characteristic stone which is used in Morelia (México) as the raw material for architectural monuments, using a high power diode laser treatment. We concluded that continuous wave regime leads to better results than modulated wave regime; additionally, a two laser passes process demonstrated a high performance.

Single-crystal fibers (SCFs) have a great application potential in high-power lasers due to their excellent performance. In this work, high-quality and crack-free Yb3+:Lu3Al5O12 (Yb:LuAG) SCFs were successfully fabricated by the micro-pulling-down (μ-PD) technology. Based on the laser micrometer and the X-ray Laue diffraction results, these Yb:LuAG SCFs have a less than 5% diameter fluctuation and good crystallinity along the axial direction. More importantly, the distribution of Yb ions is proved to be uniform by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and the scanning electron microscope (SEM). In the laser experiment, the continuous-wave (CW) output power using a 1 mm diameter Yb:LuAG single-crystal fiber is determined to be 1.96 W, at the central wavelength of 1047 nm, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 13.55%. Meanwhile, by applying a 3 mm diameter Yb:LuAG SCF, we obtain a 4.7 W CW laser output at 1049 nm with the slope efficiency of 22.17%. The beam quality factor M2 is less than 1.1 in both conditions, indicating a good optical quality of the grown fiber. Our results show that the Yb:LuAG SCF is a potential solid-state laser gain medium for 1 μm high-power lasers.
