Beam structure of a diode-side-pumped Nd:YVO{sub 4} slab laser

The beam spatial structure of a diode-side-pumped Nd:YVO{sub 4} slab laser with grazing-incidence bounce geometry is studied. It is found how the mode structure changes with changing the cavity parameters in the cw and active Q-switching regimes. The parameters that allow one to improve the output b...

Zusammenfassung:The beam spatial structure of a diode-side-pumped Nd:YVO{sub 4} slab laser with grazing-incidence bounce geometry is studied. It is found how the mode structure changes with changing the cavity parameters in the cw and active Q-switching regimes. The parameters that allow one to improve the output beam quality retaining high output laser power are found. (control of laser radiation parameters)
