Residual pump diagnostics of lasing-state absorption in multipass pumped Yb:YAG thin-disk lasers
Hanjin Jo, JiÅà MužÃk, Pawel Sikocinski +4
Residual pump power was used as a spatially integrated diagnostic of inversion-dependent absorption in 32-pass pumped Yb:YAG thin-disk lasers. A quasi-three-level rate-equation mod…
Analysis of multi-pass pumped thin-disk laser performance with measured disk deformation
Hanjin Jo, JiÅà MužÃk, Pawel Sikocinski +7
Predicting the steady-state performance of high-power thin-disk lasers requires not only pump-signal energy transfer but also how disk deformation contributes intra-cavity mode for…
Comparative study of second harmonic generation at 1030 nm in BiBO and LBO crystals using a 100 W-class picosecond laser
Huzefa Aliasger, Å imon Å atra, OndÅej Novák +4
We present a systematic experimental comparison of single-pass second-harmonic generation (SHG) in bismuth triborate (BiBO) and lithium triborate (LBO) nonlinear crystals, driven b…
6-mJ, 4-ns Pulse Generation at 2.09 m from a Diode-Pumped Ho:YAG Thin-Disk Laser
Y. Koshiba, J. MužÃk, M. Smrž +4
A holmium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Ho:YAG) thin-disk was experimentally investigated under Q-switching and cavity-dumping operation schemes, pumped by a 1.9 m laser-diode…
