摘要：

Efficient pulsed roomâtemperature laser operation at 946 nm has been achieved by endâpumping Nd:YAG with multiple diode array bars. High average power operation was made possible by the use of a waterâcooled composite doped/undoped Nd:YAG laser rod. A 5.7 W output at 946 nm was obtained at 500 Hz in longâpulsed operation. Over 15% efficiency based on incident pump power was measured at 300 Hz. With intracavity frequency doubling using KNbO3, 366 mW was obtained at 473 nm and 200 Hz. © 1995, American Institute of Physics. All rights reserved.
