CW Diode Laser Pumped Q-Switched High Repetition Rate Nd:YAG Laser
A 15 W CW diode laser end-pumped Nd:YAG laser is reported. The output power of 4.5 W and the slope efficiency of 44% are obtained in free runing cavity. By using Q-switch the peak power of 28 kW and pulse width of 8 ns are obtained at repetition rate of 10 kHz. The repetition rate varied from 3 kHZ to 65 kHZ. Several important factors in cavity design are analyzed. The dependences of pulse energy and slope efficiency on the repetition rates are analyzed. The theory conclusions fit well with the experimental results.
