Ultrahigh repetition rate Q-switched 101 W TEM/sub 00/ Nd:GdVO/sub 4/ laser system

Ultrahigh repetition rate Q-switched 101 W TEM/sub 00/ Nd:GdVO/sub 4/ laser system

In this paper, we have demonstrated operation of ultrahigh repetition rate, high power diode-pumped bounce geometry Q-switched Nd:GdVO/sub 4/ laser system. Single mode Q-switched oscillator produces 40 W of /spl sim/20 ns pulses from 100-600 kHz and 101 W average power with high beam quality is obta...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper, we have demonstrated operation of ultrahigh repetition rate, high power diode-pumped bounce geometry Q-switched Nd:GdVO/sub 4/ laser system. Single mode Q-switched oscillator produces 40 W of /spl sim/20 ns pulses from 100-600 kHz and 101 W average power with high beam quality is obtained in a master-oscillator power amplifier configuration.
