We report an acousto-optic (AO) Q-switched fiber laser with linearly polarized short pulse output. The fiber laser was set up by applying a piece of large mode area polarization maintaining Yb fiber of 1 meter length as the gain medium and a free-space AO Q-switch as the modulating element. The fibe

We report an efficient high-output periodically diode side-pumped electro-optical (EO) Q-switched Nd:YAG/KGd(WO 4 ) 2 coupled-cavity Raman laser with conductive and air cooling. A maximum pulse energy of 126 mJ and a peak power of 21 MW are achieved at the first order Stokes wavelength of 1177 nm un
A diode-end-pumped AO Q-switched YVO 4 / Nd:YVO4 composite crystal laser is demonstrated in this paper. With a comparative simple cavity, the laser can generate short pulse duration and high peak power by optimum design. The shortest pulse width of 9.5 ns and the maximum average output power of 10.1
