As high as 1.89 W average output power is obtained at the pump power of 15.7 W with the pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 27.2 kHz, and the corresponding diode-to-Stokes conversion efficiency is 12.0%. The highest pulse energy of 84.0 μJ is obtained. The obtained average output power and pulse energy are much higher than the previously reported results of diode-pumped passively Q-switched Raman lasers.展开更多
The 885 nm direct pumping directly into the^4F_(3/2)emitting level of Nd^(3+)is applied on an Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal.The maximum output power of 2.8 W for continuous wave(CW)operation is obtained.For Q-switc...The 885 nm direct pumping directly into the^4F_(3/2)emitting level of Nd^(3+)is applied on an Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal.The maximum output power of 2.8 W for continuous wave(CW)operation is obtained.For Q-switched operation,the maximum average output power is 1.2 W with pulse repetition of 23.69 kHz and pulse width of 35 ns at the pump power of 27.9 W.The high-quality fundamental transverse mode can be observed owing to the reduction of thermal effect for Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal by 885 nm direct pumping.展开更多
