“…Geusic et al in 1964 [8], has presented excellent performance such as excellent thermal conductivity, low laser pump threshold, good mechanic properties, and large thermal capacity, etc. Compared with other Nd-doped crystals, such as Nd:YVO4, Nd:GdVO4, Nd:LuVO4, Nd:YAG, and so on, the Nd:GGG crystal can not only be grown in larger size because it is free from an optically inhomogeneous region called "a core" [9,10], but can support a higher concentration of neodymium-ions of about 4% or even higher [11,12]. Therefore, the Nd:GGG crystals have been considered to be the best host for the solid state heat capacity laser (SSHCL) [13] and widely used in SSHCLs [9,14].…”

Abstract:In this article, we demonstrated the continuous wave (cw) performance of a high-power diode-pumped Nd:GGG laser. The maximum output power of 13.2 W was obtained under the incident pump power of 28.8 W, giving the optical conversion efficiency of 49.5% and the slope efficiency of 51.5%. And the intrinsic loss of Nd:GGG crystal was measured to be 0.86% cm −1 in our experiment.Thermal focal length, mm

“…But diode end pumped Nd:GGG was reported few. In fact, the wider absorption band of Nd:GGG reduces the sensitivity on the wavelength of the laser diode [11], thus the diode-pumped high power Nd:GGG lasers have also attracted much attention in recent years [12,15,16]. Very recently, L.J.…”

High-power continuous wave and passively Q-switched laser operations of a Nd:GGG crystal

et al. 2007

Abstract:We report on the continuous wave (CW) and passive Q-switching performance of a high-power diode-pumped Nd:GGG laser. A CW output power of 7.20 W was obtained under an absorbed pump power of 14.97 W, which gives a slop efficiency of 52.7%. With a Cr 4+ doped yttrium aluminum garnet crystal as the saturable absorber, the shortest passively Qswitched pulse width, largest pulse energy, and highest peak power achieved were 7.7 ns, 126.25 µJ, and 15.5 kW, respectively.Intensity, a.u.

Abstract:In this article, we demonstrated the acousto-optical Qswitching performance of a high-power diode-pumped Nd:GGG laser. The maximum average output power of 2.56 W was obtained at the repetition rate of 15 kHz, and the minimum pulse width of 21 ns was obtained under the pump power of 9.18 W, the peak power and the pulse energy were calculated to be 11.4 kW and 253.6 μJ. The conversion efficiency of the output power from CW to Q-switching operation was amounted to 60.8%.
