Abstract:
A thin-disk laser module based on an Yb:YAG/YAG composite active element is developed with a small-signal gain of 1.25 and a stored energy of 400 mJ under cw pumping. The gain and thermally induced phase distortions in the module are studied experimentally. Based on this module, a thin-disk laser with an average power of 300 W and a slope efficiency of 42% is designed.
Keywords:
thin-disk laser, Yb:YAG, composite active element, amplified spontaneous emission, thermal effects, high average power.
