High power diode-pumped continuous wave (CW) and Q-switch operation of Tm,Ho:YVO4 laser is reported. Using two Tm,Ho:YVO 4 rods in a single cavity, up to 20.2 W of CW output lasing at 2054.7 nm was obtained under cryogenic temperature of 77 K with an optical to optical conversion efficiency of 32.9%

A passively Q-switched mode-locking of continuous wave diode-pumped Tm,Ho:YVO4 laser by use of In-GaAs/GaAs as a saturable absorber is reported for the first time as the author's know. The maximum Q-switched mode-locking output power was 210 mW at a wavelength of 2.05 ΞΌm with pulse repetition freque
High efficient CW lasers at 1064 nm and 1342 nm were realized in a compact diode-end-pumped Nd:YVO4 slab. The maximum 1064 nm output power of 22.5 W was obtained under the pump power of 56.0 W, corresponding to the maximum optical conversion efficiency and slop efficiency of 40.1% and 50.1%, respect
