    Abstract

    This paper describes the feature of higher energy conversion efficiency when a Nd:YAG laser medium is used for amplification. The energy conversion efficiency is higher. In general single rod Nd:YAG laser oscillators, the same laser rod is used both as oscillator and amplifier, thus the conversion efficiency is raised. It is especially obvious at low pumping energy. This is known as "the Composite technology.
