Tunable laser-diode-pumped Nd:YAG microcrystal lasers at 1.4 micron

TEM(infinity) laser operation of a monolithic Nd:YAG crystal laser has been achieved on three transitions at 1.414 micron, 1.444 micron, and 1.431 micron with laser diode pumping at 808 nm. The laser threshold was 1.5 W and the maximum output power 50 mW. The gain linewidths at 1.414 micron and 1.44...

Zusammenfassung:	TEM(infinity) laser operation of a monolithic Nd:YAG crystal laser has been achieved on three transitions at 1.414 micron, 1.444 micron, and 1.431 micron with laser diode pumping at 808 nm. The laser threshold was 1.5 W and the maximum output power 50 mW. The gain linewidths at 1.414 micron and 1.444 micron were determined by means of temperature tuning the microcrystal lasers. Calculations for designing tunable single frequency microcrystal lasers have been performed. (Author)
