A xenon ash-lamp-pumped, passively Q-switched Nd:GdVO4 laser with GaAs semiconductor saturable absorber is demonstrated. The static laser performance is investigated and the static output is 52 mJ when the pump energy is 9:45 J. The dynamic laser has the highest slope e ciency when the GaAs wafer is
The key parameters of an optimally coupled doubly Q-switched laser are determined by maximizing the peak power. A group of general curves are generated by considering the single-photon absorption (SPA) and two-photon absorption (TPA) processes in the GaAs, along with the Gaussian spatial distributio
