Abstract
We report a high-average-power acousto-optic(AO)Q-switched intracavity frequency-doubled red laser based on a high-efficiency light-emitting-diode(LED)pumped two-rod Nd,Ce∶YAG laser module.Under quasi-continuous wave operation conditions,a maximum output power of 1319.08 nm wavelength was achieved at 11.26 W at a repetition rate of 100 Hz,corresponding to a maximum optical efficiency of 13.9%and a slope efficiency of 17.9%.In the active Q-switched regime,the pulse energy of the laser was as high as 800 μJ at a repetition rate of 10 kHz with a pulse width of 1.5 μs.Under non-critical phase-matched KTP crystal conditions,an average power of 2.03 W of 658.66 nm through intracavity frequency-doubling was obtained at a repetition frequency of 10 kHz with a duration of 1.3 μs,and the M2 factor was measured to be about 5.8.To the best of our knowledge,this is the highest average power of an LED-pumped AO Q-switched 1319 nm laser and intracavity frequency-doubled red laser reported to date.
