We demonstrated an e cient and compact, diode-pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser operation at 1:064 m wavelength with high repetition rate, using Cr 4+ :YAG as saturable absorber, formed with a simple at-at resonator. The maximum CW output power of 4:05 W was obtained at the incident pump pow

A laser-diode pumped passively Q-switched new type crystal Nd 3+ :NaY(WO 4 ) 2 (known as Nd:NYW) laser with Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorber has been realized. The dependence of pulse repetition rate, pulse energy, pulse width, and peak power on pump power for different small-signal transmission of Cr
The high e cient laser performance of self-Q-switched laser in the co-doped Cr 4+ ; Nd 3+ :YAG microchip with 1:8 mm thickness was demonstrated. The slope e ciency is varied with the re ectivity of output coupler at 1064 nm, and the highest slope e ciency of 26% was obtained for 95% re ectivity of o
The realization of high repetition rate passively Q-switched monolithic microlaser is a challenge since a decade. To achieve this goal, we report here on the first passively Q-switched diode-pumped microchip laser based on the association of a Nd:GdVO 4 crystal and a Cr 4+ :YAG saturable absorber. T
