A Simple Approach for Enhancing the Output Performance of Solar-Pumped Solid-State Lasers
A simple truncated fused silica elliptical cavity is proposed to enhance the output performance of solar-pumped solid-state lasers. The imaging property of the truncated elliptical cavity ensures an enhanced absorption distribution within an Nd:YAG rod. Optimum pumping parameters are found through Z...
