Thermal analysis and experimental study of end-pumped Nd: YLF laser at 1053 nm

Abstract We have numerically analyzed the thermal effects in Nd: YLF laser rod. The calculations of temperature and stress distributions in the Nd: YLF laser rod was performed with finite element (FE) simulations. The calculations showed that the laser rod could be pumped up to a power of 40 W witho...
