Abstract
We report a theoretical and experimental study of a single-mode Q-switched YLF:Nd3+ laser longitudinally pumped by CW laser diodes, with the pump beam parameters and the resonator configuration being varied. The aim of the work is to determine the effect of up-conversion and off-axis radiation beams on the efficiency of generating single-mode Q-switched pulses in a YLF:Nd3+ laser longitudinally pumped by CW laser diodes with a power of up to 6 W. As a result, optimal conditions are determined for generating Q-switched pulses with maximum energy and pulse power in a single-mode, longitudinally pumped YLF:Nd3+ laser, and the effect of various factors limiting these characteristics is estimated quantitatively.
