New 3D multipass amplifier based on Nd:YAG or Nd:YVO4 crystals
Sebastien Forget, Francois Balembois, Pierre-Jean Devilder +1
We report on new simple and efficient multipass amplifiers using prisms or corner cubes to perform several passes in different planes of incidence. This scheme provides an optimize…

Direct and absolute temperature mapping and heat transfer measurements in diode-end-pumped Yb:YAG
Sebastien Chenais, Sebastien Forget, Frederic Druon +2
We report direct and absolute temperature measurements in a diode-end-pumped Yb:YAG crystal, using a calibrated infrared camera, with a 60-m spatial resolution. The heat transfe…
