We have applied a new simplified combination of numerical methods for studying the time and three-dimensional space dependence of quasi-three-level Yb3+:Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG) end-pumped lasers passively Q-switched by a Cr4+:YAG saturable abso

We demonstrate operation of a compact, passively Q-switched Yb:YAG laser producing 10W average power at 1030nm in an 8.5kHz train of 1.2mJ, 1.6ns pulses. The laser is cw end-pumped with a fiber-coupled wavelength-stabilized 940nm diode. The pump ligh

A diode-end-pumped Tm:YLF laser, passively Q-switched (PQS) with a Cr:ZnS saturable absorber, generated 10 mJ, 29 ns-long pulses at 1.9 μm, corresponding to a peak power of 350kW. A PQS laser operated at a maximum pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of

We characterize several configurations of compact, Q-switched, 1.5 um lasers based on Er/Yb doped glass. Such lasers are required for eye-safe laser range-finders (LRF), laser markers, and illuminators for 3D and gated imaging. While 1-3 Hz pulse rep

Highly efficient, diode pumped Tm:YAP lasers generating emission in the 1.85-1.94 μm range are demonstrated and characterized. Laser optical efficiencies of 51% and 45%, and electrical efficiencies of 31% and 25% are achieved under CW and Q-switched

We describe and compare the performance of two types of compact, passively Q-switched Yb:YAG 1030nm lasers and their use for 257nm fourth harmonic generation (FHG). In the first implementation, an end-pumped Yb:YAG laser produced a 250μJ pulse train

We present a compact, side pumped passively Q-switched Yb:YAG laser that was operated in a burst mode with pump durations of 2-4 ms at low duty cycles. Intra-pump pulse Q-switched pulse repetition frequencies varied from 5-20 kHz depending on the tra

We describe a compact, side-pumped, Er/Yb glass laser with a low cost mechanical Q-switch. The Q-switch uses a mirror or reflecting prism mounted on a cantilever resonant spring that is driven by a small electromagnetic coil. The demonstrated laser u

A compact 1030nm fiber laser for ultraviolet generation at 257.5nm is presented. The laser employs a short length of highly-doped, large core (20μm), coiled polarization-maintaining ytterbium-doped double-clad fiber pumped by a wavelength-stabilized
