Abstract

In this paper, the absorption, emission spectra, and the energy-level structure of Yb:YAG crystal are introduced. The thin disk laser consists of Yb:YAG rod, 940 nm InGaAs LD pump source with the maximal output power 15 W, coupling system, heat sink, and a front cavity mirror. Using an end-pump configuration, the output characteristic of the all-solid thin disk laser is studied. Its maximal output power of 1030 nm is 2.1 W under 14 W pump power, with the optical-optical and slope efficiency of 15% and 24.3%, respectively.
