A high power, high efficiency, laser diode-pumped, continuous wave miniature Nd glass laser
We report the operation of a Nd glass laser pumped by a 500 mW broad single stripe laser diode. We have observed a slope efficiency of greater than 30% and an output power of greater than 100 mW when pumping with one diode The output power increased to greater than 150 mW when two such diodes were u...
