چکیده
A lamp-pumped, 13-W cw Nd:YAG ring laser at 1.064 microm is injection locked using a 40-mW single-frequency diodelaser-pumped Nd:YAG laser as the master oscillator. The phase fidelity of the injected slave to the master is measured using an all-optical technique.

Frequency stability and offset locking of a laser-diode-pumped Nd:YAG monolithic nonplanar ring oscillator.
The frequency stability of laser-diode-pumped, monolithic Nd:YAG solid-state unidirectional nonplanar ring oscillators was studied by heterodyne measurements. We obtained cw single-axial- and transverse-mode power of 25 mW at 1064 nm at a slope efficiency of 19%. Two independent oscillators were offset locked at 17 MHz with frequency fluctuations of less than +/-40 kHz for periods of 8 min.
متن کاملSelf-starting additive-pulse mode locking of a Nd:YAG laser.
We report additive-pulse mode locking of lamp-pumped Nd:YAG lasers at both 1.06 and 1.32 microm. Under completely self-starting conditions, stable cw mode-locked trains of 6-psec pulses have been achieved at an average output power of 2.4 W.
متن کامل11-GHz waveguide Nd:YAG laser CW mode-locked with single-layer graphene
We report stable, passive, continuous-wave (CW) mode-locking of a compact diode-pumped waveguide Nd:YAG laser with a single-layer graphene saturable absorber. The depressed cladding waveguide in the Nd:YAG crystal is fabricated with an ultrafast laser inscription method. The saturable absorber is formed by direct deposition of CVD single-layer graphene on the output coupler. The few millimeter-...
متن کامل1.1-W single-frequency 532-nm radiation by second-harmonic generation of a miniature Nd:YAG ring laser.
A compact and efficient source of cw single-frequency radiation at 532 nm with excellent long-term stability has been realized by external frequency doubling of a diode-pumped miniature Nd:YAG ring laser. With a semimonolithic MgO:LiNbO(3) resonator an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 89% from 1064 to 532 nm at an output power of 1.1 W was achieved, with a wall plug efficiency of 9%....
متن کاملFrequency and intensity noise of an injection-locked Nd:YAG ring laser
Measurements of intensity and frequency noise of an injection-locked 5-W Nd:YAG laser are presented and compared with the predictions of models. We show that the output of the injection-locked laser has very low levels of noise, and that the measurements support the predictions of the models. Thus these models can confidently be used to predict the performance of high-power, injection-locked la...
