Abstract

Monolithic composite Cr4+∶YAG-Nd3+∶YAG crystal fiber was grown by means of laser heated pedestal growth (LHPG) method. Preliminary results showed that the crystal fiber is well suited to a compact passively Q-switched laser operation. The output beam characteristics were observed with two kinds of cavity configuration with different output couplers. A Q-switched laser output with 9 ns pulse duration, 19 mW maximum average power and 10 kHz repetition rate was achieved.
