    Compared with the traditional two-dimensional Airy beams, the super-Airy beams have such transmission characteristics as no diffraction, self-bending and self-healing, and their main lobes have advantages like much smaller size and more intensive energy. Therefore, the super-Airy beams have a broad application prospect in the optical micro-particle manipulation. In order to make a compact equipment for generating super-Airy beams, we present a laser design proposal for outputting the super-Airy beams directly. In our design, the 1% neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet rod is pumped by a laser diode which is used as the pump source. The diffraction grating on which the cubic phase information of the super-Airy beams is loaded is used as the output coupler, so that it can output the super-Airy beams directly in the direction of the first order diffraction. The numerical calculation results show that the threshold power of the laser is 1.4 W, and the output power will rise up to 678 mW when the pump power is 2 W.
