Longitudinally diode-pumped Nd:YAG double-clad planar waveguide laser.
We report the demonstration of a near-diffraction-limited, compact, diode-end-pumped double-clad planar waveguide Nd:YAG laser. Efficient laser operation was achieved for the three dominant Nd(3+) transitions, at 1.064, 0.946, and 1.32microm , with TE polarized output powers of 1.33, 0.57, and 0.33 W for the available output couplers. The output beam from the monolithic plane-plane laser cavity...
متن کاملPulsed laser deposited diode-pumped 7.4 W Yb:Lu₂O₃ planar waveguide laser.
Fabrication, characterization, and laser performance of an Yb:Lu₂O₃ planar waveguide laser are reported. Pulsed laser deposition was employed to grow an 8 µm-thick Yb-doped lutetia waveguide on a YAG substrate. X-ray diffraction was used to determine the crystallinity, and spectroscopic characterization showed the absorption and emission cross-sections were indistinguishable from those reported...
متن کاملCompact diode-pumped passively Q-switched tunable Er-Yb double-clad fiber laser.
Efficient repetitive passive Q switching of a cladding-pumped Er-Yb fiber laser has been demonstrated by use of an external-cavity configuration containing a Co(2+): ZnS crystal as a saturable absorber. Energies of as much as 60muJ in pulses of durations as short as 3.5 ns (FWHM), corresponding to a peak power of >10kW, have been generated, and the maximum slope efficiency with respect to the a...
متن کاملDiode Pumped Planar Waveguide/Thin Slab Solid-State Lasers
Diode-pumped solid-state lasers (DPSSLs) with high power and good output beam quality are widely used in material processing, communication, remote sensing, and medical treatment. A preferable diode-pumped solid-state laser has the characteristics, such as high efficiency, long lifetime, high reliability, compact size and flexibility. Planar waveguide lasers can be formed by transition metal di...
متن کاملSilver-clad nitride semiconductor laser diode
An edge-emitting laser diode is described in which the epitaxial upper cladding layer is replaced with a metal contact selected for its optical as well as electrical properties. The structure is demonstrated with an In0.1Ga0.9N multiple-quantum-well laser diode operating at 412 nm with silver rather than the typical p-type AlGaN for the upper cladding. Silver is effective as a cladding layer be...
