Enhancement of laser-diode pumped self-Qswitched Cr, Ca, and Yb 3+ ions co-doped YAG (Cr,Yb:YAG) lasers by bonding Yb:YAG ceramic to increase pump power absorption efficiency have been demonstrated for the first time to our best knowledge. Efficient Cr,Yb:YAG self-Q-switched laser performance has be

Laser performance of Yb:YAG ceramics and singlecrystals doped with different Yb concentrations was investigated using two-pass pumping miniature laser configuration. Highly efficient laser performance was obtained for both Yb:YAG ceramics and single-crystals. For the low doping concentration, the la
This letter reports the generation of watt-level radially polarized light from an LD end-pumped Nd:YAG laser by utilizing a photonic crystal grating as the polarization-selective output coupler. The Nd:YAG crystal is bonded with two undoped YAG crystal end caps, which is used to weaken the thermal l
