Abstrakt: 6.5-W, 1.3-µm passively Q-switched output was demonstrated from a side-pumped Nd-doped GdYVO bounce laser in combination with a V:YAG saturable-absorber crystal. Experimental output powers of 6.5 W and 6 W were measured at a maximum pump level in multi- and TEM-mode operations, corresponding to optical-to-optical efficiencies of 17.5% and 16.2%, respectively.
