Hybrid Resonator 1319 nm Nd:YAG InnoSlab Laser

Abstract

The InnoSlab laser has the advantages of excellent thermal management and high overlapping efficiency. In this work, we report an InnoSlab laser with high efficiency at 1319 nm end-pumped 0.6at.% Nd:YAG by 808 nm. The hybrid stable–unstable resonator was adopted. For a cavity length of 17.9 mm and absorbed pumped power of 423.5 W, the output power of 81 W was obtained at T = 5%, exhibiting an optical conversion efficiency of 19.13% and a slope efficiency of 29.80%.
