Quasi-continuously pumped operation of 2.4% doped crystalline Nd:YAG in a bounce geometry
2009
We report on efficient operation of highly doped 2.4 at. % crystalline Czochralski grown Nd:YAG at 1.06μm, 1.3μm
and 1.4μm in a diode pumped bounce amplifier configuration under quasi-continuous pumping. At wavelength of
1064nm the linearly polarized pulses with energy of 16.8 mJ in free running regime with repetition rate of 10 Hz
(optical to optical efficiency of 44.6 % and slope efficiency of 50%) and 1 mJ in passively Q-switched regime with
pulse duration of 6.4 ns were generated.The passively Q switched operation at 1.3μm was also demonstrated.
