Abstract

A high energy high peak power flash-lamp pumped pulsed Nd:YAG solid-state laser is investigated in this paper. The symmetrical resonator laser is developed and rated at single pulse energy 60J, peak power 30KW with beam parameter product 2mm.mrad. The total system electro-optics efficiency of the lamp-pumped YAG laser is as high as 3.1% with pulse width tunable between 0.05-2ms. The results are consistent with the theoretical analysis and simulation.
