A multisegmented Nd:YVO4 laser operating at 1342 nm that is in-band pumped by a wavelength-locked 878.6 nm laser diode is reported here. We achieve an output power of 12.45 W at 1342 nm for an absorbed pump power of 35.6 W, corresponding to an optical-to-optical efficiency of 34.9% and a slope efficiency of 36.1%. To the best of our knowledge, it is the highest optical-to-optical efficiency of Nd:YVO4 lasers operating at 1342 nm with an output power more than 10 W.
本文报道了一种多段式掺钕钒酸钇(Nd:YVO4)激光器,其工作波长为1342 nm,由波长锁定在878.6 nm的激光二极管进行带内泵浦。在吸收泵浦功率为35.6 W的情况下,我们在1342 nm处实现了12.45 W的输出功率,对应的光光效率为34.9%,斜率效率为36.1%。据我们所知,这是输出功率超过10 W的工作在1342 nm的Nd:YVO4激光器中最高的光光效率。
