β¦ Synopsis
A diode-laser array end-pumped acousto-optically Q-switched NYAB laser operating at both 1.06 and 0:53 m has been demonstrated. An average output power of 1:3 W at 1:06 m at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 60 kHz was obtained with an optical conversion e ciency of 18.1% and a slope e ciency of 21.3%. At the incident pump power of 6:1 W, the 1:06 m shortest laser pulse was reached at PRF of 20 kHz with FWHM width measured to be 32 ns, yielding a largest pulse energy of 30 J, and a highest peak power of 938 W. The attainable maximum average green power was found to be 185 mW, with an optical conversion e ciency of 3%.
