摘要：

A high-power CW Nd:GdVO4 laser end-pumped by a diode-laser-array has been demonstrated. TEM00 mode output power of 5.05 W was obtained at the incident pump power of 12 W, leading to an optical conversion efficiency of 42.1%, while the slope efficiency was determined to be 47.6%. These results were shown to be slightly better than those achieved with Nd:YVO4 crystal having the same Nd3+ concentration. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
