Neodymium YAG lasers pumped by light-emitting diodes

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Quant. Electron. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
The results are presented of theoretical and experimental investigations of room-temperature YAG:Nd lasers pumped by light-emitting diodes. The lasing characteristics of a laser operated at the 1.06 and 1.32 ..mu.. wavelengths were investigated in the cw and pulsed regimes and dependences of its parameters on the temperature, pulse repetition frequency, and other factors were studied. In the pulsed regime the laser efficiency was 0.2% and in the cw regime the radiation power reached 50 and 17 mW at the 1.06 and 1.32 ..mu.. wavelengths, respectively.
