Abstract

The proper selection of the parameters of the laser material parameters for efficient continuous-wave 1064 nm emission under direct diode laser pumping at 885 nm into the emitting level of Nd:YAG is discussed. High slope efficiency (0.8) in absorbed power for 1.1 and 2.5at.%Nd concentrations and the advantage of using concentrated Nd:YAG crystals for improving the absorption efficiency is demonstrated.
