摘要：

We report on a diode laser-pumped Q-switched Nd:YLF (yttrium-lithium-fluoride) laser oscillator operating in the pulse-transmission mode (PMT). It produces 1047 nm TEM00 laser pulses with variable duration of 2.4-8.4 ns and an energy of about 0.1 mJ, corresponding to approximately 40 kW of maximum peak power. A 50 W, quasi-cw (pulse duration 400 mus) diode laser bar is used as the pump source in a novel two-sided longitudinal pumping geometry.
